Pros

Adds to number of firms in New Orleans. Appreciates high caliber design thinking. Interest in design beyond buildings. Chases high profile projects. Wins plethora of design awards.

Cons

Projects never get built. Decision making from leadership often feels erratic and lacks long term strategy. Little to no transparency. Benefits are behind average for the industry and city. Profit funds leadership lifestyle, debatable how much gets returned to staff. Poor references when competing for work. Not a proper business structure. Wouldn’t come here straight out of school.
