Pros
Relatively high design standards for Denver, good salary, beautiful garden to enjoy your lunch in (if you have time).
Cons
Many words are expressed by staff at all levels at this firm. However, anything of substance is rarely said. Communication is non-existent across the board, whether it's between upper management, with PM's, PA's or Job Captains. This includes anything from design changes, meeting updates, project updates, to deadline changes. The firm seems to be transparent with their financial well-being, by showing staff at all levels numbers and stats, profits and hours. However, their financial projections and backlog seem to be based more on hope rather than actual signed contracts. This is also a firm that felt the need to lay off 10-15 of their roughly 50 staff while accepting small business loans during COVID-19, where the main purpose of the loan was to help small firms KEEP their employees. Also, your employment here is much more guaranteed if you're a shameless sycophant. It can even get you promoted from having no title to Senior Associate in a year.
