Pros

Great company culture and engaging activities. Kick ball was fun.

Cons

My experience with Premier was disappointing due to poor management and a lack of organizational structure. Employee initiatives are not taken seriously, and there appears to be a disconnect between leadership and staff. During the hiring process, I was led to believe that the company had completed ground-up projects and I had to let go of another opportunity. However, upon starting, I discovered that even basic standards, such as AutoCAD guidelines, were not in place. As a Revit user, I proactively engaged management with ideas for developing a Revit template and improving project workflows, yet my efforts were ignored, with emails going unanswered. Additionally, the company’s approach to vacation requests was inconsistent. Despite submitting my request two months in advance, I never received a response, while certain employees seemed to receive priority treatment. The lack of standards and responsiveness ultimately made it difficult to stay motivated. For professionals seeking a structured and supportive work environment, I would advise looking elsewhere.

Pros

The company has an incredible momentum and is growing fast. The new senior management has settled in and is providing stability that is needed. Communication has improved!

Cons

Hospitality Industry is in a difficult situation and Ashford is selling hotels, which brings some uncertainty. However, it appears that that third party growth will make up for Ashford hotel reductions.

Pros

Unique business model, comfortable office, & covered and secured parking. Nice standard issue of software provided. Great IT support provided. Project architects are not tasked with permitting.

Cons

Inadequate fees for new projects, inadequate support staff, just a handful of experienced designers (excluding architecture design) with the others that lack basic industry skills, code, and construction knowledge who rely upon imagery to convey design that typically is half-baked. The company provides the very minimum computer accessories with most people buying their own keyboard, mouse, and cameras to perform their job. The current office consists of tall panel workstations that provide a sea of gray. People who stand at their desks are confined to inexpensive, small, manual desk risers instead of current workplace standards of power adjustable height work tables. There is an odd division between the design and architecture teams. HR is way understaffed with only one fulltime person. The yearly review process is a beating; takes far too much time. Nice cherry on top of the long hours cake. After working for almost a year, the company has yet to produce a full document of required procedures and architectural standards.
