Pros

Amazingly creative place with studio workers very collaborative and cooperative. Good benefits and challenging work.

Cons

In Firmwide in particular, a vey deep disrespect and contempt amongst the people for each other. A fairly high turn over as well. Communication and direction can often be lacking. Former employees often still spoken of badly. Processes can be very cumbersome. Bullying behavior is rampant.

Pros

one reason people get left behind in their professional careers is there loss of continued education. Gensler offers many oppurtunities for continued education. The work enviroment is great. technology is always cutting age, new programs a continuily implemented, and atomosphere is very colaberative, you almost feel like a great big family.

Cons

At the end of the day business is business...loyalty to the company can seem to go one way. employees can sometimes be overlooked due to high rate of hiring and number of employees.

Pros

The projects can be interesting.

Cons

Really odd/confusing internal politics, legacy management with no desire to make real changes, no clear advancement paths, rampant hypocrisy.
