Great learning experience

Business Outlook

Pros

This is a great place for an internship, as the firm takes on a variety of different projects and works through all stages of design. It is a medium sized office, allowing for a broad range of experiences without getting lost amongst the crowd. People are very friendly and pretty laid back - it's a work hard play hard mentality.

Cons

Low salary and can get stuck in a specific category

unorganized - everyone is overloaded

Business Outlook

Pros

Several operational challenges, including the absence of standardized project procedures and formal management systems. Teams are fragmented, and the organizational structure is top-heavy, with a large proportion of managerial staff compared to production roles. At present, only three project captains and no dedicated in-house project architect are supporting a portfolio of more than forty active projects, which creates significant pressure on project coordination and delivery.

Cons

Access to learning materials, industrial products, and some social activities.
