Awesome place to work in - Jr CMF Designer Fox My Box Employee Review

You get to learn all the creative tools, have the creative liberty to make your designs for different brands and clients which may eventually come to the market.

Absolutely horrible work culture. Design briefs aren't conveyed clearly by the manager and when asked upon, you will be shouted at with disrespectful and downright hurtful comments. You are expected to have great team communication and if you communicate with the members of you team, guess what? You will be shouted upon again. What an irony. You will be expected to the finish the work by EOD (no not by time, official work hours are till 6, but you are expected to work till 7-7:30 if your work is not finished). Forget about any Overtime clause. Mon-Sat working hours meaning you will be a deprived and depressed soul slaving for this company. Even as an intern you would not care about the experience certificate and would want to leave this company at any cost or even kys. Expecting a regular pay as mentioned in the offer letter? Forget it. Your salary will be deducted for each day you take a leave (no there are no paid leaves, i.e pro-rata work) and I got to know this after my first month as its not mentioned anywhere on the offer letter or the NDA. Thinking to quit the internship? The manager will try to manipulate you in every way possible to stay at that company. If you are individual who likes someone to boss you around every second of your working day and insults you for 0.1% errors in your work at highly unrealistic timelines, this is the place for you. Ending statement: IF YOU LOVE YOURSELF, DO NOT WORK AT THIS COMPANY, EVEN IF YOU HAVE NO JOB. Try at other places, but not here.

1. Fast paced environment (not sure if it's a pro) 2. "startup culture" 3. occasional dogs in the office 4. finished products are pretty

1. the sheer amount of dehumanization, humiliation, and shouting one encounters is surreal, I have seen joint families with less trauma than employees (read: survivors) of this place. The possibility of crying at the workplace is extremely high. 2. the employee turnover ratio is higher than their inventory turnover ratio (there is barely a month's inventory) for very valid reasons of berated, overworked, and underpaid poor souls. leading to constant rearrangement of "departments" (if there are any, 2 people are not called 2 different departments susan) and the inevitable burden of multiple departments falling on one person. expectations of the workflow and speed of delivery shouldn't go down with even half or a quarter of the personnel, expecting employees to do 4x or 3x the work in the same amount of time. Often, employees are asked to work Sundays (no saturdays off) and work after they reach home (from an already long 9:00 am to usually 7:20 pm work day) if the job is not complete. 3. the resources provided are scarce and employees are expected to figure things out on their own after being thrust into jobs they have little to no knowledge of (because the management “felt” you’d be a good candidate for the task, based on what evidence???). there is a loop of changes and updation of plans and strategies that circle back to the plans and strategies one started with but now the credit falls in different hands 4. employees are expected to strictly abide by the deadlines and ever-changing "systems" (they're also expected to completely understand the systems; however mundane and counterproductive they may be; as and when they are set into place) but deadlines and systems will be changed daily at the whim of the managers. 5. you will find numerous errors and red flags in your onboarding documents like wrong name, wrong date, wrong profile, nda for not discussing salary with fellow employees (glaring red flag) . no reward (eg:recommendation letter) will be provided by the employer after incentivising people to stick around for the reward because the employer “felt they you do not need it and the experience letter should cut it (i’m just paraphrasing here)” 6. there is hardly any pay (pray heavens if they pay you more than 25K) and for whatever pennies the employees earn they're constantly asked to prove their worth and are verbally reminded of their replaceability in colorful words like "do the job I'm paying you for"or "figure it out, I don't pay you for this". there is constant anonymity around your fixed pay. you’ll be onboarded with a 3 month probation period on a lower pay than you’d agree upon and the employer will extend the probation indefinitely for no rhyme or reason. there is also a rigid attendance structure that will dock your pay 1/4 for the day. 7. fatigue is a constant companion at this place with compounding manipulation. employees experience a pretty good first week but over time breaks are cut in half, and everyone is expected to only talk about work related things even at lunch hour (hour haha, 20 min is not an hour) there is intentional miscommunication to foster sour relations among employees to not let there be any outside of work talk. employees are expected to withhold information from other team members while somehow maintaining transparency 8. employer is highly narcissistic, manipulative and overbearing. you’d be constantly pryed for personal information and snide, downright hurtful comments will be made towards you as a form of manipulation or as the employer calls is “negative motivation” (because apparently it is highly effective, really??). managers are not supposed to shout but all that flies out the window in this place as there is constant shouting, occasional breaking of things and a really hostile work environment (if employees were children, child protection services would have been called at the hostility) 9. if you want a good laugh you can look at the benefits provided in the pay or the lack thereof, there is no epf, no gpf, no insurance, no hra, (there isn't even an HR department), no performance bonus, no casual leaves, 5 medical leaves a year (those are the only paid leaves), no wfh costs and compensation, no travel and conveyance and generally no basic human regard.
