Just don't do it.

Pros

Good for beginners or interns

Cons

No room for advancement, not enough pay or benefits, long hours, mismanagement, money hungry design leads, a design director who doesn't pay attention to anyone not part of his "boys club", untrained managers, an HR team who only cares about Barbeques and baseball, and a sexist, money hungry CEO. Please, please, do not waste even a summer here.

Pros

Umbra designs and products are great, I still buy and recommend them.

Cons

Dutch office is chaotic, messy and highly unprofessional, they have part timer managers Colleagues yell at each other, you see tears very often, fast/junk food is part of the office's culture and in general you won't have any opportunity to grow, there's no desire of change and the "leaders" have no university degree whatsoever.

Pros

Employee discount and cafe food

Cons

Everything! Prepare to have no life, answered emails at all hours of the day AND night. They resent you leaving on time. Leadership dating their staff, poor benefits plan, favourtism, unorganized and VERY, VERY high turnover in all departments including HR! Positive reviews are FAKE!
