Pros

The work culture at the Designit Bengaluru studio is collaborative and supportive, especially within the design team. As a designer, you have the creative freedom to explore and push your ideas, and your peers are always willing to help you grow and refine your skills. However, when it comes to management, expectations should be kept realistic as support and direction from leadership can sometimes be limited.

Cons

Designit is a globally respected design consultancy, and many designers admire the work showcased on their website. However, if you're considering an opportunity with the Bangalore studio, it's important to understand the reality on the ground. During my two years at Designit Bangalore, I witnessed a continuous wave of exits—not due to layoffs, but because many talented designers felt the work culture and leadership style didn't align with their values or expectations. Since a particular leader took over the Bengaluru business, the studio has seen significant turnover—15–16 people left in a short span, which is unusual for a design team. Despite this trend, there seems to be little reflection or questioning around why people are leaving so frequently. Most team members stay for just 1–2 years, which suggests a deeper issue with team dynamics and leadership mentality rather than project opportunities or performance. Also, while Designit’s global portfolio is impressive, it’s important to note that most of the showcased work comes from studios in London, Singapore, Australia, Jordan, etc.—not from the Bangalore studio. This disconnect can be disappointing for designers who join expecting to work on high-impact global projects. This message isn’t to criticize Designit as a whole—the brand and its global work are genuinely inspiring. But for those planning to join the Bangalore studio, I strongly recommend speaking with current and former team members to get a clear picture of the culture, leadership, and project pipeline. Do your research, ask questions, and make an informed decision.

Pros

Amazing people. Talented and passionate about what they do.

Cons

Wipro management and employees are the worst. Directionally, they are greedy and value quantity over quality.
