A space with great resources and an environment where you can learn together.

Business Outlook

Pros

* Opportunities to work on international projects and for new employees to freely share their ideas. * Leadership that not only guides design but also supports employees in becoming better professionals and people. * A great LA office environment with a fitting salary. * An office team with excellent skills and knowledge, and great teams that are easy to work with.

Cons

It seems that incorporating more trend-forward designs could lead to even better results, but as a newcomer, I found it challenging to overcome the established methods and the specific direction and style clients wanted. Nonetheless, they consistently delivered solid outcomes.

Pros

Great people, if you're in the right office you'll find a good culture, but it varies drastically by location.

Cons

Not enough young leadership pushing the needle forward, and not enough money to elevate new leaders.
