Pros
Great product, always improving product.
Cons
Benefits to designers have reduced.

Keep going in the direction to make positive changes and make designers successful. Stop selling product from corporate and have all sales go to designer teams, making designers successful, will only make the company grow.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Origami Owl full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Positive, accepting and FUN environment filled with creativity and love. Extremely supportive of families and offers flexibility in many ways including bringing the kids into the office when it's needed (not every day, of course!). The work environment is by far the most supportive I've ever found--toxicity is not tolerated and the company sticks to its culture consistently.
Cons
Busy! If you're ready for a challenge and to learn, O2 will keep you on your toes. The company has weathered a number of transitions, but the foundation is stronger than ever--past employees who went through this but are no longer there have an axe to grind so take past reviewers' feedback with a grain of salt.
Advice to Management
Ignore the haters of the past and stay focused on the current path--you're doing great and the growth and new partnerships like Harry Potter and Warner Bros. proves it!

Doesn't RecommendI worked at Origami Owl full-time for more than a year
Pros
Fun Environment Free Jewelry Some good people
Cons
Management and Founders have their favorites and ignore the rest. Many layoffs, can't keep a steady income Do not compensate properly for their employees time Unorganized and always changing their minds.
Advice to Management
Stop spending money on pointless things. Like the new nest that built. Too much space and nice things that they really couldn't afford and now they are having to rent out part of the building. Should put more money into your employees rather than making it look like your are successful.
