It's all smoke and mirrors

Pros

With the exception of one or two bad eggs, the actual employees at the ground level are a great group and genuinely like each other. Nice downtown space near the subway, close to amenities. Free snacks.

Cons

Six months ago this was a place with a ton of potential, but weak, self-serving and dishonest leadership has led to a toxic environment where the worst elements have risen to the top and all the best people have left or are desperately trying to. You'll never hear them admit it though. Current leadership refuses to acknowledge that the mass exodus of all their best people has anything to do with them. They are as good at finding ways to rationalize their dysfunctional behaviour as they are bad at running a company. Clients are unhappy, staff is unhappy, and the cracks are starting to show.

Poorly managed company

Pros

Nice office space, fair pay and benefits, free snacks

Cons

This company had a lot of potential some months ago. Bad decisions and poor leadership have driven the best people out of the company. The CEO lacks vision. He comes off as a nice guy, but he doesn't truly care about his employees. Don't be fooled by appearances. The worst people have been promoted to the top, including in the HR department, so there is no way to get help if you work there. Trust me, I tried. Sometimes the projects are interesting, but you mostly get to work on the same stuff. I don't understand why people say they learn anything there. You usually learn one thing and you do it again and again. But again, I am not even sure who writes these reviews on glassdoor. Spare yourself the pain and stay out there.

Pros

Downtown office, open-space, free snacks and cool activities from time to time

Cons

Architech is like a revolving door. The best people are gone now and the leadership changes direction at the speed of light. Not the place to build your career. I think that most of the good reviews on glassdoor are actually fake. I was often "encouraged" to post a good review while I worked there.
