Pros: I really liked the project variety here. You get to work on actual design and build projects for major financial institutions. My team in the St. Louis office was genuinely supportive, which made tough deadlines easier to handle.
Cons: The work-life balance isn't great, honestly. For design roles, you often put in 50+ hour weeks to meet client deadlines. Compensation also felt a bit low for the hours expected, and upward mobility can seem slow.
Advice to Management: Focus on balancing project assignments better to reduce designer burnout. It'd also be good to review salaries to ensure they match the dedication and long hours many employees put in.
