Inconvénients
With such a tight-knit culture, it makes parting ways difficult. Some people take it personally, but ultimately people at DesignMap have your best interest in mind. Since personal career growth and coaching have been a constant evolution at the company, it can be difficult to know where you stand as a designer, and how to receive feedback. Promotions are awarded inconsistently and seemingly at random, which makes it difficult to grow as an individual long-term.
