      Pros

      Other offices outside of Gensler Atlanta office have good culture and leaders.

      Cons

      The culture is highly judgmental, fear and manipulation driven, and does not support growth and advancement. The office leaders lead with insecurity. Unhealthy competitiveness and judgement. The leadership is bias, unfair, and does not care about the employees well -being, they only care about their own self-preservation. This is a very unhealthy environment due to the leadership. I would never encourage anyone to work at this office.

      Pros

      Nice office, lots of “rah rah Gensler” events with food & booze, some nice people

      Cons

      Where do I start…..some studios are TOXIC. Favoritism permeates every aspect of working here. It’s nauseating. There is zero loyalty, zero recognition for hard work (yeah you get a bonus but sometimes a kind word is needed). Oh-and never ever express an opinion that may be in opposition to “leadership’s”. Your private life, beliefs, politics and other personal things are fair game for letting you go. I’ve seen it happen-fired because someone expresses in a private conversation that one has ethical concerns regarding projects that are in the office (but in another studio/office) will get you fired. They will make up some bs about “work performance”, yet no conversation ever with anyone about “needing improvement “. Out of left field. Bye bye. Management tells leadership that they’d already “warned” the person-completely untrue. Hear later it was likely due to having concerns about a client/project. Lesson learned-shut up, work 12 hrs a day and be happy with the scraps you’re thrown. Also-egos galore! Unwillingness to take accountability for mistakes.
