Interaction Design Foundation reviews

All in all, IxDF is a cool place if you’re into professional growth and learning. It’s got its ups and downs, but it’s mostly ups in my book. Like some of the other reviews say, the mission makes it fulfilling, adding a lot of heart to the business side of things. The team is generally amazing. A group of diverse people coming together. We got moments of disagreement but I feel we need to learn to disagree more, and not less. Too often, we avoid the discomfort of disagreement. For personal and professional growth the opportunities are endless if you just show consistent results.

While my experience was remote and from the outside, the facets of the company with which I interacted were outstanding. Just visit their website and take it all in. Those who have build IxDF have done so with as much love and care as a parent would for their own children. You can see the genuine care and deep love that they all share not only for the company and their clientele, but also for each other and all those that are potential new hires. They have established an ecosystem that should be the envy of other business far and wide. While the model which they have made of their infrastructure would not necessarily work within all forms of business, having the mentality can. They actually care. There is genuine care with each member from the top down. They don't send out robotic generated emails, each email from a real human, who in turn, really cares. You don't find this often, but it should be found more. I can't help but feel that the root of this mentality if the fact that the company is run by Danes, who by their very nature are some of the most caring people on the planet. If you don't believe that, go to Denmark and see for yourself. It's like going to a small neighborhood where everyone knows each and their families, but shed that same care to strangers and travellers. Voted "happiest country in the world" many years running, the core values or care and compassion is engrained, and it has shown through here. I will keep looking for new opening at this company in the hopes that I can one day get a foot in the door. I assure you that if you do, you won't ever want to leave. No this isn't a paid ad, they don't need it, their reputation shines enough as is. I've just seen plenty of very unfortunate business models and top down decisions that leave those who work their without hope for advancement or recognition. This is a breeding ground for it.
