    Working with inexperienced, incompetent, lazy and undisciplined senior manager, principal architect & department head who knows nothing about design and architecture.
    The good thingsNo good things, bad management in planning, bad leadership
    The challengesMost of the leaders (department head, principal architect & senior manager) who are making the office standards don't have actual architectural & on-site experience that's why the office standard that they want to implement are full of errors & not the proper & correct standard that most professionals are using. They are just copying other company standard & change it a little to pretend that they made it. Very unprofessional

    No career growth, weak leader, mismanagement, bad decision making and no direction
    The good thingsNo work schedule and most seniors and leaders are always late
    The challengesThey spent a lot of money upgrading software that they didn't know how to use properly and downgraded the software that everyone was using so our work slowed down a lot because of the weak management and poor decisions making of our seniors & department head. Long working hours 8:00am to 6:36pm and they want you to stay longer to pretend that our department is productive :)

    Please save yourself, there are already too many awful stories working for New San Jose Builders as a property consultant. Many other reputable real estate developer companies out there treat employees better.
    The good thingsFriendly co-workers and sales managers are helpful and supportive
    The challengesHORRIBLE! I experience my salary being delayed twice. I even have experience working without receiving our salary for one cut-off pay. The two admin officers are not approachable and unfriendly. I couldn't close a deal with a client because my client backed out after learning about the bad reputation of San Jose Builders.
