Pros

The designers are competent, international, kind and fun to work with

Cons

Terribly managed by incompetent leaders who miserably fail to motivate the team. Gossip like teenagers, badmouthing and backstabbing is not uncommon. Micromanagement at its core with no opportunity to learn independently.

Pros

There used to be some.

Cons

A global Leadership team that doesn't lead, they just micro manage people as subordinates. Stakeholders that don't like being told the truth. (Their ego's are more important). Poor remuneration for employees and attracting new talent. (champagne taste/lemonade money). No empathy from management. Toxic work environment. Exec-Directors with poor soft skills that speak down to people. Favouritism. No shared accountability. Poor employee benefits. (You can't even expense travel despite it's written in to the contract of employment, but they'll pay bonuses to senior directors) A CEO that harps on about sustainability but gets Limousine's to visit studios, and complains about 4* hotels despite the business isn't turning a profit. No support from HR Poor scrappy on boarding experience. (not everyone gets one) Poor interview processes with tasks. This isn't a values-driven business, what the website says and isn't a reflection of what is practiced daily. Bullying. constructive dismissal of employees. (I've seen it happen more than once). No inspiration 0 empowerment

Pros

1. They will help you out well for relocation, so do not worry about them. 2. You will be a part of a skilled team with expertise in different areas. So lots to learn as an individual. 3. Great space within Wipro campus so no worries are amenities around work

Cons

1. The work defines a studio and its very mediocre here 2. The company is built on bureaucracy and micro-management, so your free thoughts are basically shot 3. Company focuses more on irrelevant activities like competition, etc., just to build a good image and have lots of free time. so the actual product design task is something a design studio should be known for, not extracurricular activities. 4. Favoured employees - yes you will see the company favouring their favourites so expect toxic culture.
