Pros

Interface attracts genuinely talented, passionate people, my colleagues were some of the most skilled and inspiring professionals I've worked alongside. The company's sustainability legacy and mission, rooted in Ray Anderson's vision, is real and meaningful. The benefits and compensation are good, and the work itself can be rewarding and creatively fulfilling.

Cons

The culture is politically charged and performative. Optics matter more than genuine contribution, which takes a real toll on professional confidence. There are unwritten rules about how to behave and who you can speak to, and breaking them carries consequences. New hires are expected to be fully up and running within 1-3 months, which sets people up to fail in an already punishing environment. Work-life balance is poor, with a do-or-die intensity that feels disproportionate for a marketing setting. Career growth is largely an illusion. Roles lack defined upward paths, and the professional development offerings, including outside experts brought in for employee growth, did not deliver meaningful value.

Pros

A healthy work environment with a lot of opportunities to grow professionally. The pay, bonuses, and time off are all competitive, and upper management does a good job listening to employee concerns and feedback across different levels of the company. No workplace is perfect, but overall Interface has been a genuinely positive place to work, and I’m thankful to be part of this organization.

Cons

I don’t have any significant drawbacks, but it would be refreshing to see the Lagrange offices and work spaces updated to better reflect the creativity, and design expertise that we are known for.

Pros

Unlike any company I have worked for previously, Interface identifies and promotes talent from within, allowing positions across the organization to grow with the company. Outside talent is also brought in, but not at the sacrifice of the growth and interests of current employees. Leadership is diverse, with a strong percentage of women in these positions. In an industry that works heavily with interior designers, this is a boon. Interface also lives the ideals promoted, actively investing in continued improvements in sustainability and world class design. Unlike many in the design industry, Interface purchases no carbon offsets to achieve their carbon zero status. Overall, Interface supports employee growth and leads by example in the realm of sustainable design and manufacturing. I have never been more proud to work for an organization.

Cons

Like many sales organizations, the on-boarding process could be more prescriptive. Mine has had many hiccups, and I believe more are still to be discovered. The regional showrooms could do a better job with brand story telling.
