DesignWorks Collective Reviews

Leadership tends to focus excessively on minor details and prioritise control over collaboration, often over-involving themselves in day-to-day tasks. Employees are not trusted to make decisions, which can lead to delays and low morale. Lack of trust in employees to make decisions, leading to inefficiencies and frustration. Limited room for innovation due to rigid processes and constant oversight. Workplace culture often feels more about compliance than collaboration or growth.

Was told I would not see pay increases, even after 1.5 years. Asked for help in the form of assistants, planning protocols, tech infrastructure, and was met with mostly rejection. People were eventually hired above my position that I had to brief.
