Companies with a strong design team?

Hi Grapevine, I am currently applying to Enterprise / SaaS organisations in Bengaluru and getting confused when trying to benchmark my level against different companies as they all use different employee leveling scales. This is getting to be an issue as the salary range is generally benchmarked to the level of the open position and I'm unable to reply confidently to the recruiters on my salary expectations. My most recent position was as a Senior Lead UX Designer in an IT Services company. I was leading teams of 3-5 UX and UI designers for end-to-end design engagements and my clients were large MNCs including a fortune 50 pharma giant. I was also involved in training and evaluating associate designers and expected to contribute to design proposals for potential clients. Any advice or pointers on how you figured out your own experience and employee level accurately would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance! --- YOE: 5 TC: 21.5L

Hey guys, I'm working as a UX designer in an Design agency. So over there i used to work from research till wireframes for each projects, like i don't have hands on experience doing the UI part. Is it okay if i just learn how to design stuffs using existing design systems? And also could anyone suggest me some good companies which have good design culture in hyderabad or remote! Thanks in advance 😄

Please suggest some good startups with a decent culture to work as Product Designer. I have over a year of experience.

Hello fellow designers, I'm currently looking for a job switch from an MNC to a mid-sized, consumer facing company. There are some companies I'd like to know more about in terms of Design team and culture. If someone could provide any insight into the same, it would be great.

What are the things you look out for while giving work to design agencies?

I have 2+ years of experience. B.Des degree from a reputable university. Unfortunately, stuck in a toxic startup which was once a great place to work at, thanks to my previous manager who is a kind soul. Previously worked in a design-centric unicorn. You’re guaranteed to get a designer with great attention to detail, understanding of product sense, an eye for quality visuals, and balances business goals and user needs. Let my YoE not fool you :) Please let me know if any of you are looking for product designers!

As a fresher eager to dive into the world of UI/UX design, I'm curious about the current trends shaping the industry. What emerging design principles, tools, or methodologies are you all excited about? Additionally, I'm looking to kickstart my career in a company that values innovation and growth in the UI/UX space. Any recommendations on top companies or startups I should target for opportunities to learn and grow in this field? Your insights and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I have 1.7 years experience. worked in 2 startups as solo product deisgners. legal tech and ed tech.Did everything from research, ui ,moodbboard,illustration, motion,... since I never had seniors just curious to know...

Yo. Is anyone's company looking for Product Designers? (With decent pay?) I'm looking for a change. There are so many fake openings on LinkedIn. Naukri got NO Naukri. Other platforms are dead. I got almost 2 years of experience. I did internships at great companies. Got a formal degree. Have been a pseudo PM as well. I can think of UX before the UI. Not really the average figma to framer AeStHeTiC-Minimalist designer. Do DM me if you got openings and can get me hired
