Feedback was taken personally, not professionally. - UX Designer UEGroup Employee Review

I originally was excited by UEG because I could make a real impact right away, working on client projects and making decisions that influence the company's direction. I loved that they trusted me with such important things, and let me take on as much as I could handle even though I was so junior at the time. It was the perfect growth opportunity to build a ton of skills really quickly. I stayed because the work was so exciting. Unlike a lot of agencies out there, UEGroup focuses on "mission critical" spaces where the user experience has a massive impact on people's lives. In one year, I worked on a brain surgery platform and a platform to program airplane sensors. Very technical, but exciting work. Beyond the impactful problem spaces, the approach at UEGroup is always evolving. We do not stick to the UX formula and instead try new methods and tools to meet the project strategy needs. Nothing is off limits and new ideas come from everyone which makes it a really fun and collaborative environment.

Could be viewed as cons depending on the type or organization you're looking for, but these are things to consider if UEGroup is the right place for you. - UEGroup works on difficult and technical problems. If you want to apply best practices to the next consumer mobile app or work on eye-catching websites, this may not be the place for you. - UEGroup expects super high-quality work. We help people get to our standards with feedback loops, but no matter your experience level, feedback can be TOUGH. As an agency, we are service providers and need to deliver the best to our clients. - If you are in this field for the money, go work at google or facebook. UEGroup pays well and has great benefits, but this is a small company so it can not compete with the salaries and stock options of the big tech of the world.

Big names on your resume & portfolio Many projects in a short time span

60+ hour work weeks $30/hr pay for an associate (in 2021) Toxic management Micromanagement I'm glad to see so many negative reviews. If I could, I'd go back in time and not work here. Sure, the client names look good on a portfolio. But is it worth the 60+ hour work weeks and borderline abuse from management? Not for me. This workplace was so toxic, they had me convinced that I was terrible at my job and my degree was useless. I've now worked for amazing bosses at Fortune 500 companies and received positive performance reviews yearly in competitive environments.
