Designer - Designer Studio MAI Employee Review

The studio has adapted away from the standard office setup pretty quickly during Covid and working from home on high quality projects is the best of both worlds. Studio provides exposure to great projects with established clients and has a knowledgeable and talented team.

This is a demanding place to work, but I would say that the expectations of the owners and management are in line with the quality of the projects. I have worked at bigger firms that are more corporate and arguably easier, but I wasn't working on designs that I was necessarily proud of (or excited about putting in my portfolio). Being challenged at Studio Mai has given me the opportunity to develop faster as a Designer and exposed me to projects and clients that are much higher profile than I was involved with working at other studios.

Very creative and inspiring work environment

Low wages with high expectations
