work as a junior architect at Bogle Architcts - Junior Architect Bogle Architects Employee Review

Bogle Architects offers a strong platform for working on ambitious, design-led projects at an international scale. The studio is involved in a diverse range of sectors, particularly education, residential, and research, often with complex and high-profile briefs. This provides excellent exposure and the opportunity to develop both design and delivery skills. There is a clear emphasis on architectural quality and concept-driven design, which makes the work engaging and intellectually stimulating. Team members are given responsibility and trust, allowing for meaningful involvement across different project stages. The office has a collaborative and supportive culture, with approachable colleagues and a strong sense of teamwork. Working on international projects also brings valuable experience in dealing with different clients, cultures, and project conditions. The practice also supports a good level of flexibility, including flexible working hours and the opportunity to work from home once a week, which helps with overall work-life balance.

As with many design-led practices, workloads can be demanding at times, particularly around key deadlines. The pace and expectations can be high, which may not suit everyone. Given the international nature of the work, projects can sometimes involve complex coordination and changing requirements, which can add pressure to delivery stages.

Location and colleagues are a good thing here
