Is architecture some sort of special ability that only a few people possess? Is there something specific about architecture that makes it so exclusive? When architecture as a major is brought up in conversation it is met with shock from the other party as it is notoriously referred to as one of the hardest majors. The real reason behind the \u2018myth\u2019 of architecture is years of systemic toxic work culture and architects that proliferate it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hustle culture is huge in architecture, both during and after schooling. Architectural students, as well as architects, are expected to essentially dedicate their lives to the profession, working extremely long hours and sacrificing personal time. The idea of a work-life balance is essentially non-existent in architecture culture. If someone doesn\u2019t pull all-nighters or stay after work hours they are often seen as less dedicated and professional than their colleagues who do stay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of the extremely demanding hours and grueling work, entry level architects and interns are often paid very low when compared to professions with similar schooling and exam requirements. This isn\u2019t because the architecture profession can\u2019t afford to pay them, but because a new architect is expected to prove themselves in the industry and the culture. Young architects are often told that the profession isn\u2019t for them when they express concerns surrounding the work, hours, culture, or pay. This is for no reason other than a long standing tradition of hustle, hierarchy, and pride that every architect is taught during their schooling. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1036,"featured_media":835,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[45,13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1621","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-architecture-and-psychology","category-editor-blogs"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
