Pros
Dwell is a great brand that is beloved by a very loyal fan base. At the height of the magazines prime years, it was a standout as a leader and innovator in the design world. Great place for post college graduates to learn the design/media world.
Cons
Dwell has the most toxic and non-existent leadership I have ever experienced. While most of the staff I worked with were incredibly bright, turnover was rampant and people were routinely put in management positions when they had no experience. This caused a lot of problems with projects that needed to be executed properly but most of the time were disasters. Working here was like an episode of Survivor. Staff would slit co-workers throats to save themselves even when they fumbled. Unfortunately, this behavior was bred by leadership that thrived on gossip and who "they liked" rather than what their employees were actually delivering. Problem solving is not a skill this company has. Mean Girls at it's finest, I felt like I was in a sorority house getting unceremoniously hazed. Dwell is the most unprofessional, chaotic, confusing and toxic work environments I have ever worked in.
