Pros

The people who do the real work are great, working with international teams on cool projects, nice stop for 1 or 2 years on your CV.

Cons

Low salary, no extra benefits, very poor management, after the acquisition by Wipro Designit became just another corporate, very high rate of employee turnover.

Toxic from the top.

Pros

The team is amazing, some of the most talented and ambitious people I've ever had the chance to work and play with. Great space as well.

Cons

Essentially an incredibly toxic management culture; dishonest, intransparent, mis-representation of numbers and literally playing with people's livelihoods by delaying and deflecting contract negotiations (where HR plays a big role in the toxicity experienced) to the point where pressure mounts and they push people into accepting sub-par offers. One could argue it's a strategy that works, one might wonder whether that's the kind of company one wants to work with. Designit Munich is in no way a representation of Designit global values, which is another problem.
