Ventajas
Great team of designers and project managers, interesting work and meaningful presence in the community in Denver. Young designers are encouraged to take on ownership of projects. Great for personal growth. RNL supports professional development through liscensure, CEU opportunities, lunch-n-learns, as well as great networking opportunities. Benefits are great other than 401K but this is replaced by ESOP (employee owned company). Eco-Pass is a huge plus.
Desventajas
RNL was just acquired by Stantec, lots of uncertainty and red tape that comes with working for a 22,000+ person firm. Benefits are now terrible and it seems like the "new" company thrives on misinformation and promises to remedy issues transitioning employees have with the acquisition "sometime in the future".
