I going to be extremely honest in this Review. I worked here for 2.5 months & left the organisation during my probation period when they decided to Demote me for reasons they couldn’t specify. My experience in this organisation was very toxic, I literally faced trauma. Everyone in a managerial position is filled with ego & doesn’t have any ethics & empathy while talking to their colleagues. • Founder: Toxic, Micro-managing & has Anger Issues. She is a very good human being when you interact with her as a person, but she becomes extremely toxic & micro-managing when she's in charge. I still remember, her yelling at me full of anger on a phone call on the 2nd working day itself and she continued it until I left. It still haunts me when I remember the days I was working here. • Leads: Unexperienced, Micro-managing, Lack of Empathy & Unsupportive (not suitable for the Leadership position) The Leads in Pineapple are the typical Indian managers who don’t care about their team or colleagues, all they care about is the work & deadlines. They micro-manage the team and take account of every working hour. What else you can expect when you have a Lead who became Lead from an Intern in just 2 years in the same organisation? • Candidate Evaluation: 0% Transparency & No Job Security As I specified above, I had to leave the organisation because they Demoted me. They didn't specify the exact reasons and told me that "they don't feel I'm suitable for the position I'm currently holding". Didn’t give any specific reasons for why they felt that way. Hence, 0% transparency in candidate evaluation. After I left Pineapple, within the next 2 months, I onboarded 2 international clients as a freelancer & successfully closed the projects (they are Live now). Currently, I'm a Senior Product Designer at a company & managing multiple projects....Read More

Pineapple Studio has a young team of driven UX/UI designers & illustrators. Working with such a team challenges you to work harder and make your work better each day. The robust discussions and the constant back and forth of opinions makes it a delight. Every opinion counts here and you yourself feel like wanting to contribute your thoughts on the discussions. In terms of the company, there isn't a hierarchical structure. One day you could be directly working with the co-founders and the higher ups on a project and the other day you'd be talking to a big client all on your own. At Pineapple such opportunities are ample and they give you the potential to grow....Read More

Pineapple has groomed me as a professional UI/UX Designer. The mentors here have taught me growth-skills like communication, negotiation, UX research and other soft skills. very few companies offer such learning or client exposure and i get to do just that here.

I have to deal with some amount of work pressure and then there are fewer holidays
