Pros

Great projects, great clients. Employee stock ownership program (ESOP) can produce nice dividends, though it may be overvalued.

Cons

Company "culture of respect" -- if you have to say it, its because you're not doing it. Support positions are undervalued, disrespected and at times ridiculed. Constantly changing office missions, revolving door supervisors. Offices, divisions and people pitted against each other in mix-and-match shotgun arrangements for individual jobs, fighting for billable hours. Company tries to maximize profits by offering all conceivable services under one roof. Eyes bigger than their stomach at times, 10 percent of budget and hours taken right off the top for profit, forcing offices to do contracted tasks with less.

Pros

Good pay. Two maybe three good architects are still there. Benifits are great. Technology is up to date.

Cons

Leadership (Office, Design, Operations) is non-existent. Long time architecture employees continue to jump ship to escape the dumpster fire inferno. It will get worse.

Pros

Chases big projects, good work sharing in some locations. Can get opportunity to lay hands on landmark projects.

Cons

Employees are treated as thanksgiving deals in terms of compensation and benefits. Bad retention policies. No good internal transfer opportunities.
