Gain lot of experience - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso IFS Core

Awesome team atmosphere, where everyone jumps in together to get things done. The work is fast paced - there is never a boring moment - but we do know when to take a break and head out for ice cream! You will be constantly challenged and forced to expand your comfort zone here. This company invests in their people and TRUSTS them so you, in turn, will feel invested in your work and the work of the company - it makes you truly care about the overall success and health of the company and team.

Not really a con but, since we are small and growing, there are the expected growing pains. Thankfully, the environment here is one in which issues are discussed openly and then we all jump in to come to resolution.

-At first, there were a lot of opportunities to shine and grow with management that truly valued design. The company had no designers initially until a former manager hired them and started a small design department. -The Boston office is really nice and has a very convenient location. -Overall a lot of really nice people work for the company. -The CEO is extremely nice and cares about people.

-PTO is limited. HR claims it's good but in reality if you get very sick you then have no time to take for personal matters. -Systems for claiming time off and putting in hours (even salary employees had to put in hours) were antiquated and easily caused errors. -New Manager didn't value work/life balance, talked down to employees, and didn't understand design processes. Had long time-wasting conversations explaining design methods and decisions. -When management changed the company no longer valued design (was told by the new manager that he was confused as to why the previous manager hired 2 designers instead of just 1) -Wasn't given recognition or pay raise after solely designing an entirely new UI component library from scratch plus a new visual direction for the product.
