In all seriousness I think one of the best firms for mentorship and mental health has to be Slalom. Definitely miss the 45 hour weeks with a great network of team members

Right now we’re kinda going through the growing pains of weathering this whole downturn. Culture has taken a hit but is still probably better than most other firms. I would keep Slalom on your radar but hold off on joining (may not be hiring anyway).

At the moment i manage a team of 5 industrial designers for b2b sustainable fashion and retail interiors.
