Pros

Nice perks to distract from how day to day tasks are completely different from what you were told they would be during the hiring process. Encouragement to continue education and pursue licensure is nice.

Cons

Very small amount of real architecture or design, it's a project management firm where ongoing projects fall into the category of facility management and almost all new projects start from an already complete set of template drawings.

At MG2 we have a very diverse portfolio of clients and project pursuits across three different studios. Each group has core services for our clients that range from concept design, feasibility research, design development, land use approvals, project budgeting, documentation and permitting, as well as construction administration, and more. Over the years delivering these core services to long time clients successfully has created great opportunities for team members to grow their careers while building the firm. Ultimately, everyone has their own personal interests and passions toward architecture and they have to find a firm where they believe the opportunities will align with their career development and goals. We are glad you notice the effort the firm is making to provide educational opportunities and resources so our employees can continue to develop themselves and their career. It's unfortunate that you didn’t have a good experience with your manager. We encourage employees to voice concerns so we are aware and can find ways to address any issues.

Pros

Got to work on a good studio team in CP and had an awesome peer mentor. Puzzle breaks were also fun.

Cons

Sometimes you are doing only AutoCAD or only Revit, and not learning a whole lot of other software skills.
