Dumping work, never abandoning tasks or responsibilities without proper handover and support, which negatively impacts team efficiency and overall user experience.

Competitive environment, We want our best designers to be mentoring other designers not shutting them down. It should never feel like a competition when delivering work.

Goals based solely on company performance, each team member needs specific actionable goals that improve their skills which indirectly and sometimes directly ties back to business goals.

No growth opportunities, each designer is unique and so is there career growth, the more you push them into a mold the less likely they are to feel motivated about growth.

No salary audits, times change and so does salary, it’s important to ensure your team feels and sees how much the company values their time and efforts.

Always “The Intern,” as your team grows you need to provide them with new opportunities to continue expanding their skillset.
