Pros

Healthy work environment, strong and understanding leadership, growth opportunities, good benefits.

Cons

Company success is dependent on the current state of the economy (layoffs) though they try hard to not have to lay off too many people when projects slow down. So that's the risk.

Leadership in Hiding, Employees Left to Burn Out

Anonymous employee
Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

A lot of difficult projects with tight deadlines that will eventually teach you to become better at what you. Diamonds are made under pressure.

Cons

-The Chairman is more focused on selling leadership books and phone cases than actually leading the company. -Upper management is a revolving door of favoritism, rewarding connections over competence. -Leadership changes at HQ (Irvine) have turned the workplace toxic. -Employee well-being is an afterthought—if even that. -Leadership stays hidden while employees burn out, but you’re expected to feel “lucky” just to have a job here. -Work-life balance? Nonexistent. -Charity events are just a PR stunt and a tax write-off. -Too many management roles with no real impact or growth. -Salaries are below industry standards. -No real accountability or support from leadership at any level. -Layoffs are a recurring theme—job security is a myth. -Fear, not passion, drives the culture. -Management takes all the credit when things go right but dodges responsibility when they don’t.

Not what it was

Pros

I have made some lifelong friends that I would have never known. Each office has their own personality and leadership, so much variety makes for a unique experience for all. Encourages team building events and used to have an amazing Christmas party.

Cons

Not necessarily a con for everyone but they are an industrial design firm at heart, although they say they do other sectors they dont properly invest in doing them the right way. Uphill battle for real opportunities for women. The new leadership wave has different priorities and employees is not one of them.
