Leach Rhodes Walker Architects Reviews

Staff management non-existent. Lack of transparency regarding responding to staff requests or concerns, Felt on hold and uncertain of place in teams at longer time periods, inefficiency and mis-communication. Rigid working hours and lack of trust towards staff.

I was offered a placement in this firm a couple of months ago, and was hired alongside another part 1, I received no support with my work, and didn’t even know I had a part 1 mentor for two whole months, everybody in the office seems too scared to talk and you will go most days without a single conversation if you allow it, work is not collaborative or creative, you merely just do the jobs nobody else wants to or has time to do. Two weeks before my probation was supposed to end, they let me and the other part 1 who started alongside me go, claiming they had to make cuts, yet they hired new staff for our position the day before, we believe they did this so we would only be entitled to a weeks notice (due to probationary period) , and this has affected our placements as it is a bad time of year to be looking for a new placement as most are now taken
