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

- Challenging and productive work environment - Leadership trusts you with important work, and lets you drive it to completion - Organizational values align with my own - Team members are passionate about the work they do - Management is transparent and easily accessible - You get to make the world a slightly better place by teaching UX designers of the future - and lots more

Cons

- The onboarding process should be more accommodating for individuals such as myself, who didn’t previously have experience with remote work - Team Trips have been on pause since Covid hit :-(

Pros

I have been with the IxDF for ~9 months, and feel honored to be part of this team. The pros for me so far have included: * A team I see doing its best every day to democratize top-quality design education. * Colleagues that are incredibly talented, kind and hard-working. * Willingness as an organization to adapt and try new things. * A very international, remote-first organization.

Cons

The cons for me so far have included: * The typical challenges of a small but growing organization. (e.g.,occasional documentation challenges, cross-timezone coordination) * During the pandemic, working remotely across international borders has been a little isolating. This is likely to change as travel resumes.
