I have a few friends that work out of the SF location, and they love it. I’ve heard LA and Seattle don’t get as much attention or innovative work. They said 401k match is 6% and PTO is around 20+ days but that’s including sick days. The stock options though I’ve heard are the best.

🙋🏻‍♀️ Worked here 2 years I absolutely love it and no plans on leaving. SF probably has some of the best projects especially with the acquisition of Matter. Service design is huge and put on a pedestal if you're into that.

Should be the same as Accenture, no?

I share space with them in NYC. Benefits are Accenture. They are cool, and I really like the service design work they do.

Mixed reports, tbh. I know a couple of people who left due to bad management and culture - Fjord LA was apparently an acquisition post-Accenture, and not “OG Fjord”. May have changed in last couple of years though.

@deloitte Yes across all of fjord service design is huge... IXDs are "Service and interaction designers". NYC especially bc they're one of the bigger offices.
