"I have worked for the Gensler San Jose office for over 3 years. It is not a typical Gensler office in that our culture is more relaxed. People are friendly, and the work environment is flexible. There used to be a strong culture that was fun, but some expansion/contraction in the staffing has done away with that. This and the low rate of pay for the area and for the workload have made it a less than desirable place to work for me. However, as a firm, there are a lot of interesting projects."

"Working for Gensler was and is an experience that I will cherish. The company always challenged me in many different ways and exposed me to many aspects of architecture. With its vast and endless resources, one can easily connect and pursue its passion for architecture. Help me find my path in architecture, that suited me the most, that is to become a more technical architect."

"International company with a lot of opportunities. It's a great place to gain experience and learn about multiple practice areas. Vertical structure makes it difficult to showcase and value your individual work. Gensler has a competitive environment that can challenge anyones ability to achieve a healthy life-work balance."
