Employees at The Buchan Group Architects appreciate the supportive team environment, particularly among the interiors team working across states. They value the opportunity to work on high-profile projects across various sectors and the learning experiences and opportunities for growth provided to those willing to work hard. Additionally, there is progress towards diversity and inclusion within the company, driven by the CEO's efforts to change the culture.
However, some potential challenges exist, such as management challenges, particularly in the Sydney studio, with issues like lack of support, poor leadership, and resistance to change. There are also limited opportunities for career progression, especially for interior design graduates and draftspersons. Certain offices, like Sydney, were described as dull and quiet, impacting the overall work environment. Furthermore, some employees felt there was a lack of training, particularly in areas like Revit, which is widely used within the company.
