      Corporate driven, Micro-managing and Underappreciative

      Studio coordinator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The option to transfer to another office, they are global.

      Cons

      If you are not a designer or an architect, you are not valued. Plain and simple. I suggested a process to improve the workflow of the studio coordinators and my email was intercepted by HR who reprimanded me for trying to "coerce the employees" and "disrupting the system".

      Horrible place for moms with young kids

      Job captain
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They give you lot of responsibility and dump work on their employees which is good for some one who wants to learn.

      Cons

      I want to warn all ambitious moms (especially with younger children) not to join Gensler. They dump a lot of work and pay peanuts! It is strictly business for them. Top management are not trustworthy. Basically when you compare the stress vs. the pay you get, it is worthless to go work for this company.

      A disappointing and disheartening experience

      Office service coordinator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The office is beautiful, and I met a few kind coworkers.

      Cons

      Poor leadership, lack of psychological safety, retaliation after speaking with HR, and leadership that was inconsistent, dishonest, and not transparent in communication.
