Pros

Flexibility Fast learning Decent Pay

Cons

There is a lack of support for and from middle level management. Studio managers are overworked and don't have time to slow down to teach and guide. But the expectation is that you know your project role (it changes from project to project and is not the same as your job role) and not need help to do it. Project expectations are often assumed, not communicated, and uncoordinated. The fasted paced projects can be fun and interesting, but Unispace doesn't seem to think about the effect on moral and productivity when projects are started without clear direction and work stops and starts unexpectedly. I have never worked at a company that says 'Pencils down, but if you have free time keep going just in case'. They burn fee and human resources as though everyone is replaceable. Management talks a good game, but there is little follow through on supporting their people.

Pros

Unispace is for lack of better words, a "Design-Build" company but it is really so much more. You get to sit, as a designer, with your fellow estimators and builders and build a better mousetrap. I have learned so much about actual construction processes, means, methods, costs and best practices since moving to Unispace. It is fast paced and no one wears one hat so you never get board. It is truly a mecca for a pro-active doer who wants to break convention and do something better.

Cons

It is fast-paced....not for the faint of heart. Also, as a global company with a national team that operates as one, sometimes communications slip between cracks.

Pros

Some good people, but that’s changing quickly

Cons

No clear company strategy. Top management changes all the time. Sales funnel is particularly weak. Work environment is toxic and highly inefficient.
