Rapt Studio Reviews

Agile team but not agile design process sometimes due to a conservative director who dictates the design and client relationship. Agile team doesn’t work sometimes when working late is necessary and teammates doesn’t really help. Team manager is very busy at project coordination but not really taking time to manage team which lead my above point to be even worse. Company is inviting a lot of strategist coming to the decision making process which is sometimes a bad news for designers: making them the “hand”or “labor” and not as well connected as the strategist to the client and big picture. Very little real mentorship to young designers, we really need to be absolutely proactive and yells for mentorship rather than being pulled away for labor. Not being able to learn the systematically way of approaching design, improving tinyly.

The biggest con was alarmingly frequent lay offs and a very high turnover rate. I also felt somewhat micromanaged with heavy team meetings, check ins, roll call, etc.
