Minpunten

This is the ultimate guide if you're considering working for IxDF. They claim to have a small community with a fantastic culture, but that's not true. The reality is that the small community means you'll be overworked to the point of insanity. They keep the staff limited, so you'll work beyond your capacity and still be expected to do more every day. They say introverts are welcome, but that's a lie. You won't last a month if you keep your head down and do your job. The CEO micromanages everything and fired all the managers, claiming they ruined the IxDF culture. Since he took over hands-on management, the turnover has doubled. You may be hired as an editor but end up creating courses. If you don't deliver in the random duties thrown at you beyond the scope of your expertise , the sociopath CEO will criticize you, overwork you, micromanage you, and then fire you. Working here means saying goodbye to your mental health and embracing toxicity. The handbook is full of manipulative tools that every new hire must read and be quizzed on. They'll use you, disorganize your life, question your skills, and set you up for failure. The CEO and his wife are master manipulators, and their toxicity is starting to poison the well. The team trips are not what they seem, and you pay for every expense with your peace of mind. They'll try to tell you how to be a culture fit, but the only culture they know is being silenced, manipulated, and gaslighted. Trust me, it's better not to work here.

Reactie van Interaction Design Foundation

Dear C. You’ve now posted 5 consecutive 1-star reviews in intervals of a few days. You’ve called management “sociopathic” and written statements such as “DON'T. BE. TRASH”. In the spirit of openness and factuality, we do want to gently note something about your case: we spent many, many months investing in attempting to get your performance to an acceptable level. A normal Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) takes a maximum of a month in most companies before they exit a person if the person cannot reach an acceptable level of performance. In your case, we went above and beyond our normal protocol for underperformers and spent roughly 4 months. We did it to keep you a part of our team, and it was with heavy hearts that we eventually needed to face facts, and part ways. In other words, two Team Leads as well as the co-CEO invested their time and company budgets for 4 months to try to get you to reach an acceptable level of performance. We believe we went above and beyond. With that said, we ask that you be respectful and professional in your communication. A factual and objective approach is best in these situations. Instead of using bitter or vague language, one could provide specific and concrete examples of what went wrong and how we could do better. This way, we can have a more productive and meaningful conversation. We understand that emotions can run high when you are dissatisfied. We understand that when a job does not work out, it can hurt. We wish you the very best.
