Going downhill fast - Epidome of "working for someone else" - Run by mediocre designers - SOM Employee Skidmore, Owings & Merrill Employee Review

Unfortunately the Chicago office has no culture. Employees are not valued by leadership and seen as work horses. It's the Partners way or the highway. Try voicing your opinion, even when they "say" they want to hear from you, and you will be packing your bags like you never existed. Even if you've worked there for over 15 years. The talent is at the bottom of the totem pole, and the office is run by mediocre designers that profit from the workforce without sharing any of the profit. All the work is towers in China. Minimal to no work in Chicago. Horrible work life balance.
