    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at SJB Architects appreciate the solid salaries, great location, and vibrant atmosphere created by the studio design and younger colleagues. They enjoy working on the firm's amazing designs and great projects.

    However, there are some potential challenges raised, such as concerns about upper management and HR prioritising their own interests over staff, flexible working arrangements not being as flexible as advertised, a lack of support for young designers within the office systems, a high staff turnover rate which could be linked to management issues, and challenges with deadlines and time management of workloads.

    The good thingsYoung vibrant people are great
    The challengesDepending on who you work with you might have a very hard time. For an office of this caliber the systems are very loose for young, inexperienced designers. Some great people left.
