Pros

Compensation is decent, that's all. But did it really justify all the mental abuse and always being passed up because I was not clique-y enough? I am not sure, should have left sooner.

Cons

They only promote people in cliques/ managements' pets, was straight up told that I would never be promoted if I don't join any office committees even if I do amazing work (are you kidding me? All the long hours and you expect me to do useless tasks). Most people active with office committees but mediocre in their actual jobs gets promoted. They pretend to not have any hierarchies, but they absolutely do. Some senior staff (who still works there) will steal your ideas then prevent you from joining client meetings. There are so much ego in upper levels, no career development whatsoever. If you are just looking for a "job" with decent pay and not looking to advance, it might be OK, but if you are ambitious, AVOID at all cost.

Pros

The one pro I have for this company is that its a "big" name on your resume but besides that I could not recommend this job to anyone.

Cons

Working at IA Interior Architects was a nightmare I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. My manager made it their personal mission to belittle and bully me, while the studio leads turned a blind eye, choosing to protect them over supporting me. HR was utterly useless, offering no solace or support in the face of relentless mistreatment. The culture of the office was downright toxic – instead of fostering camaraderie, people walked past without so much as a hello. Colleagues were quick to throw you under the bus to further their own success, with zero regard for teamwork or collaboration. Mentorship and assistance were virtually nonexistent. It felt like survival of the fittest, with no guidance or support for those struggling to navigate the hostile environment. I cannot stress enough how much of a nightmare this workplace was. It's no surprise that a significant number of people have quit recently due to these pervasive issues. Save yourself the anguish and steer clear of IA at all costs.
