Glass Door review for a "Glass Ceiling" Firm
Pros
Corporate Marketing department creates this great image of flawless company that allows constant stream of work so always new clients and projects. High billing rates and a senior title for many years helped me get good salary and override bonuses (only reason I stayed this long) Remodeled cool offices Food and gift perks
Cons
Glass ceiling. Politics. Serious favoritism without merit. You can be successful on projects, work in several practice areas for different principals, stay in budget, be team player, help others, work on AIA competitions, Canstruction, and have a client request to work with you for 10 years and still get passed over for December promotion because you didn't bow to the right principal who has most power with exec committee. I'm so tired of butt kissers who don't produce good work and pretend to be involved in industry to be praised by leaders who are clueless. Not just me, but several of my peers in other offices are in same situation.
