Pros

CRB has an excellent group of people that are quick to teach and help younger people grow. The working environment is very relaxed and positive. Excellent benefits and average to good pay.

Cons

CRB does not have a good network for young architects in the KC office and the office is rather empty, not feeling like a studio at all. If you want a good architecture studio feeling go somewhere else. CRB Architects also appear disconnected from the greater KC architecture community. Leadership is also somewhat lackluster and they don't really take firm stances on anything. CRB is currently in a time of transition so things are definitely a lot more unusual than they were when I started 3 years ago.

Pros

The leadership team generally demonstrates a friendly demeanor; however, I was in the field, and my interactions with them were limited. I appreciated the competitive starting per diem rate offered.

Cons

It seems the F&B division is disorganized compared to the Pharma side. F&B was placed under the rest of the company, so hopefully this will improve things. Health benefits are okay, but I joined my wife's government benefits. Many supervisors seem self-centered, leading to confusion, frustration, and delays.
