Pros

Lots of good people work here. It's not a very political place, and hard work is remunerated over big egos and personalities. There is good work-life balance and flexibility.

Cons

Things can move a bit slowly sometimes, especially when working in large projects. Very ambitious people can feel a bit frustrated by this.

Pros

Very welcoming environment with talented engineers and architects. They’re passionate about sustainability and performance-driven design. IMPACT is great as well.

Cons

Tasks could get boring after a while, which is true for repetitive work in any field, not just this company. But for a short-term internship, everything felt enjoyable and educational.
