Pros

Get to work on exciting Frank Gehry projects! Unfortunately, that's about it.

Cons

Poor leadership/management. Has a 'fend for yourself' environment. I'm expected to learn new software on my personnel time and through resources I have to pay for myself. They sell the world to unsuspecting clients but don't have a clear strategy. High turn over. Only a few people in the company (<20 in the LA office) that have been with the company for over 3 years. Compensation is not at all competitive. I can't say that I enjoy it here. We only get the Frank Gehry jobs. No career path or professional development. Lack of organization and coordination between different teams. Clients (especially General contractors) seem to be building their own teams that can do the same if not more than what Gehry Technologies is offering. GT seemed to have a very good reputation 5-10 years back but doesn't appear to be that way now. Will probably be looking elsewhere soon...

Pros

A very young team. A lot of room to grow. Things are evolving fast. A very small team. Everyone could make a huge impact. Almost entrepreneurial but amazingly with stable project pipelines. Competitive compensation to other AEC companies. Employee benefits are from Trimble, with stock plans and 401k match etc. Half tech firm, half AEC firm. Special position to get expose to amazing projects around the globe. Good work life balance as an AEC company. I could always comfortably ask for time off to make up for any extra hours after project deadlines. Flexibility feels very rewarding. A place to learn fast. Self taught tons of stuffs through my years here, either passively requested from projects or actively driven by internal expectations. A diverse and inclusive team. Brilliant colleagues.

Cons

Still, a very young team. Some knowledge was lost in generational transitions. Requires a lot of self-driven motivation, not always a 9-5 life. There are historical burden on mature workflow/ platform dependencies . Projects are generally slow, since it is AEC industry. It takes years to witness one project from scratch to getting built. Mostly limited scope of work to BIM/ VDC in these amazing projects. Wish we could claim more responsibility and larger scopes towards design and form finding etc.
