Pros

Remote work, engaging projects, some decent collaboration.

Cons

Designit leaders excel at propping up excuses for their own incompetence. Simple, time-saving and cost-saving initiatives dragged along for months and years, with the same update "we're working on that." Revenue targets missed over multiple quarters despite a "stellar effort and leadership" from the head of sales. When questioned, leaders become combative and defensive - especially HR. Chief officers conspicuously absent from any meetings that entail "bad" or "negative" news to teams, but all too willing to take the spotlight when wins come in. Newcomers are tossed into the deep end (i.e. zero onboarding process) and will sink if they fail to fall in with the right clique. Those who don't latch onto the right crowd are quickly thown under the bus to save those with better connections.

Pros

I've had the pleasure of working at Designit for 3 years, and it has been an incredibly fulfilling experience. The company truly values creativity, collaboration, and personal growth. The leadership team is supportive, and they actively encourage open communication and fresh ideas. The work environment is inclusive, with a real focus on work-life balance. If you're looking for a company that invests in its people, promotes creativity, and gives you the freedom to grow, I highly recommend Designit!

Cons

There are none to mention

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
