Pros

Other drafters are great Stocked pantry Free lunch Fridays

Doesn’t take heed to employees concerns. Management constantly on your back and looking over your shoulder. Uncomfortable work environment. Was paid less than everyone else. Very passive aggressive toward employees.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about Designers Edge. It is wonderful to hear that you established positive relationships with your colleagues and enjoyed some of our perks, such a fully stocked kitchen and our employee favorite Free Lunch Fridays where we order from local restaurants to support our community. Although there is no such thing as the perfect workplace, I am sorry that you didnt fit in to the work environment. We have an open-door policy and encourage all employees to approach us with their concerns. In regards to your compensation, we survey the markets every quarter and always aim to provide a competitive pay rate to our employees.

Pros

Designers Edge is a great company. The workload hours vary - some weeks are short and some weeks can be longer, but OT is big and it pays off. The PMs are really great, they help you grow in your skills and genuinely care about you succeeding. They'll sit with you and walk through redlines and best way to improve. Management cares about it's employees. They hear us out when we have concerns and always try to find a solution.

Cons

Workload hours vary but if you're diligent with work - it's not bad

Pros

Free lunch on Fridays and stocked pantry

Cons

Horrible hours for admins. Always doing extra work that’s not even included in pay.
