      Pros

      Overtime and bonuses are great. Offers many design areas to grow and work in. The company offers great benefits and tries to keep their employees happy. There are a ton of resources.

      Cons

      Very large office, it's hard to move up in the ranks. You can easily get lost in the mix. It seems to be very political. Work / life balance. Compensation seems low for such a large and established company.

      Pros

      You can progress and climb to senior management relatively quickly. You get to work on a variety of project all over the planet, for some of the biggest names in business. The people and spirit within most offices is amazing.

      Cons

      Your design will be diluted by those above you until there is little of substance there. Design is unfortunately Genslers shortfall. There is a problem when you have to give out internal design excellence awards to make your staff feel like they have achieved (but at the same time not be able to produce the type of design that merits a "real" design award). Most of the senior management conduct themselves and their careers like politicians instead of designers. When Frank Gehry held up "the finger" recently to modern architecture, this is one of the firms he will have been directing it to.
