Pluspunten
I worked in the New York office for 5 years. It was a great place pre-pandemic with tons of collaboration and a small studio feel. Promotions seemed relatively quick and reasonable (although it doesn't mean much as they don't increase your salary with the promotion). The people were nice and the work was interesting.
Minpunten
A series of poor business expansions from firm leadership combined with the lack of new projects post-covid completely deteriorated the New York office. A short sighted decision to build out and move into a brand new office space as well as acquiring an unprofitable experience design company further sunk the firm financially. Attempting to pivot into new building typologies without any expertise or a portfolio of applicable work put a final nail in the coffin. After 4 rounds of layoffs over the past 3 years, a studio with over 50 employees at one point has now slid into the single digits with no end in sight.
