Pros

I read the reviews here before interviewing and what led me to except employment based on what I read is one gets to handle their own projects! That is the biggest advantage compared to about 99% of the way other firms do business! You're for the most part your own drafter, designer, job captain & project manager. Of course your boss oversees you progress & works with you progressing the project but you are your own boss pass that. (yes, you will get assistance once the project is close to a deadline & if you're behind) The projects I saw personally & in progress while working at the company were not "just deli's & small residential". It was anything but that; a VERY LARGE DELI, a 9 floor residential building, prestigious exhibition space & other fine design quality projects in the early stages of development with other projects coming into play as well.

Cons

For me it was the Korean language spoken throughout the office and in the project related emails. I have told Ji about it and he took note of that. He work on improving himself and his business structure. Other types of Cons are listed here in plenty, truthful or exaggerated is something for one to believe for themselves. I am the type of person that speaks back when spoken to so I get by a bit different with employers and suggest same for others. (no point being a push over) PS. I wrote this review because I wanted to & for no other reason. (I left because I found something that relates more to my experience & field of practice)

Pros

Great culture, the company really makes an effort to make you feel a part of the "little family" that has been created.

Cons

It is a startup culture so you have to wear many hats and the work can fluctuate a lot, as in there could be some very busy weeks and some really slow weeks.

Pros

I'm currently working in UnSPACE. I read some of the negative reviews for our company. I have a little different opinion about that. We are doing every design process from initial design proposal to finished work. It is a good company to learn about the overall construction process. In terms of design, we always try to develop creative ideas for design and we've always discuss and share our own idea so that figure out the best way. This is what i want to do before I came to this country. It's a small company, we always try to learn more about design. I have two years’ experience in my country. but it's mostly different process compared with my country. i'm learning so many thing since I began to work here. i'm happy to participate many projects in New York as a member of the team. i'm sure that i can get more opportunities to improve my talent.

Cons

for me it's enough to work
