Companies with a strong design team?
I'm a UX designer in an MNC with almost 2 years of experience. I want to work on a mid size / small design team with strong design practices. Does anyone have recommendations for companies I can consider? I am looking for places where design contributes to product decisions, strategy, rather than simply executing the PRDs.
Swiggy’s design team is very good. But I don’t think they are hiring currently
I know ex Cred folks. There are culture issues where if you fit with the philosophy of design and social culture then only you thrive. Leadership is also not so good. There’s a reason the UX is so bad.
I've heard they consider you cool if you get drunk and smoke weed with them and act woke. 🤣

There are tons of such companies. PhonePe is good to an extent (depends on the team).
My recommendation is to go for Series A/B level companies, there how much influence design has on the product is strictly based on the individual and your ability to get s#it done.
I worked for one such company in the past, got to influence everything from their funnel entry, exit, product roadmap, pricing etc.

Ayyy, I'm the design PM at my company 😂
No openings though, bootstrapped and tight budgets

Hey @WorseCapon2
Do you mind helping / guiding her @TechDesigner with either a referral or your 2 cents that can help her in her design journey.
No company has a strong design culture. The sooner you realise this the better
