Pros

Fresh employees are trying to improve the culture.

Cons

Certain Melbourne Directors are marking time. The industry has moved on and playing safe won't work any longer. In too many cases design work is placed under the responsibility of graphic designers and interior 'decorators'. Other players have eaten into their specialties and are given greater freedom.
