Pros
Well placed office in the heart of Clerkenwell, very clean and new and offer Herman Miller task chairs. If you like little to no interaction with people or if you are not keen to make friends at work; or working unpaid overtime this is the place for you.
Cons
The atmosphere in the DBOX London is like that of the decks and gangways of an Antarctic Research Vessel: foreboding, joyless and deathly chilling. There is no chatter amongst the crew, sorry I mean team, and one can't escape the feeling that the only employees that succeed here are the "lifers" or those deep in the ArchViz rat race; willing to perform any deed that offers a morsel of opportunity to catapult themselves further in the eyes of the Higher Ups or potential employers. This mostly applies to future employers as there is no way a newcomer is climbing to any form of managerial position without at least a decade working here. DBOX has a bit of a curse by being fairly famous in the the ArchViz world and so it attracts those that only want to further themselves, not those around them. Think of them as the Foster+Partners of CGI. The CEO, Matthew Bannister, seems to be more focused on his Oasis-meets-Beatles-meets-midlife-crisis music career, than the company he runs. DBOX is over 20 years old by now and you can clearly tell that it's lost it's mobility in terms of workplace culture and remote work options. Some of the staff are very coarse. And not in the pearl-clutching conservative way. More that they come across unwelcoming, critical and quite pretentious when it comes to qualifications and training. Please note that this is not true for all of the staff, however. Lastly, the pay. I've worked for Architects, Interior Designers & D&B. For a company that works for some of the highest profile Architecture firms in the entire world, you'd think it possible to pay your staff properly.
