      Pros

      Gensler is good worldwide and they do great projects. Leadership is great in US. Highly regarded for good culture. Best workplace worldwide, except Bangalore.

      Cons

      No more enjoyable place to work. Gensler became too indian like any other indian firm run by indian director. past 6months, all good and hard working seniors left . recently, leadership forced a hard working employee to resign without giving any reason. Politics in peak, culture is progressively getting worse, ethics is compromised. Latest hirers are somehow past colleagues of director, thus forming a group. More mangers but no leaders.

      Pros

      Good work-life balance and flexible scheduling. Supportive team environment with opportunities to learn new technologies. Management is generally approachable and benefits are competitive.

      Cons

      Internal processes can be slow and bureaucratic at times. Career advancement opportunities are limited without clear timelines. Communication between departments could be improved significantly.

      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.
