Earnings of partners in established architectural firms may fluctuate because of changing business conditions. Some architects may have difficulty establishing their own practices and may go through a period when their expenses are greater than their income, requiring substantial financial resources.

Many firms pay tuition and fees toward continuing education requirements for their employees.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos038.htm |title= Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook 2010–2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100330173113/http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos038.htm|archive-date= 30 March 2010}}</ref>
