Supportive colleagues but poor institutional direction and experience - Design and Research Designit Employee Review

The team is, across the board, a group of kind, smart, caring adults who support one another and collaborate to do client work that exceeds expectations.

Maintaining that special agency culture within a bigger company is always tricky but management is committed to making it work.

The work is remote -- that's a plus. And while this company doesn't pay all its bills, so far my paycheck has always arrived on time (knock on wood). That's a ridiculously low bar to set, but after a few years at Designit (if you last that long) you'll be impressed that they clear it.

Where do I even start? This agency is in complete free fall. The larger company that bought us out (Wipro) has lost us one marquee client, caused a rift with others, and gutted our staff. The Wipro team is incompetent, reckless, rude, and fundamentally incapable of right-sizing any business, including & especially their own. I doubt Designit will ever hire anyone again -- those of us still here don't imagine this place will still exist in a year -- but if you're in the market, look elsewhere. There's no institutional support, no growth potential, or really any future for Designit at all. Everyone I know here is covertly and actively seeking other opportunities.
