Minpunten
66 Portland Place is quite literally rotting away, and is the perfect metaphor for the disintegration of RIBA. I’ve never worked in a more dysfunctional environment, where bullying is rife and accountability is scarce. There is constant political infighting amongst senior staff, and blame is thrown around in every direction. The working conditions are shameful, especially considering the nature of the institution. It’s ironic that this is by far the worst office building I have ever experienced. Great people are consistently driven to resign as a result of the appalling company culture, meaning knowledge and experience are lacking across the board. My very strong advice is steer well clear.
