Pros

Colleagues who are super ambitious Meaningful work with a great mission I can work from anywhere No bureaucracy A manager who trusts me A global team Paid holidays Results were at the center of success, not office politcs

Cons

Sometimes you have to motivate yourself by imagining the thousands of UX designers who are taking our courses since you don’t see the students in real life. Seeing real faces instead of statistics would give me greater motivation.

Pros

The Interaction Design Foundation has a fantastic culture that is among the best I've seen at the companies I’ve worked for. Everyone really cares about their colleagues and especially the students who have entrusted their education to us. I feel privileged to educate the designers of tomorrow. I work with students from all over the world, and that helps me reinforce my belief that design is truly a cross-cultural and universal matter.

Cons

Language can present a challenge when working with students who aren’t proficient in English.

Pros

None. This is not a good place to work.

Cons

CEO thinks he’s a software engineer, but he jack squat about actual engineering. This is a terrible place to work and management has completely misaligned priorities.
