Lost mojo during recession - Anonymous employee KMD Architects Employee Review

Great designers and projects, a company that keeps growing with more than 50 years of experience

More organization in general, a game plan

Nobody really reviews your work. This means you often have much freedom and can get away with murder if you are lazy. Although it's not a dynamic fun place to work, it is pretty relaxed with nobody really getting in your business. Relative to other firms the pay is OK. Management is cool about working a flexible schedule.

It's on the second generation of leadership who were all grown during the first generation when the firm was floated by its rich founder. Now the second generation is trying to manage on their own and don't know how to get work. The firm is now incredibly top heavy and the new leaders seem mostly considered with sorting out the legal issues of ownership and less concerned with rebuilding what could be a nice company. Many of the firms top leaders have very passive aggressive backroom methods of leadership. Their is zero marketing vision and even less mentoring going on.
