Pros

Sustainability focused / driven Central HQ location

Cons

The former CEO is suing the company. That should speak volumes. All the toxic management that was hired is still there and thriving and hiring their friends. They market sustainability but so do a lot of other flooring companies. So it’s not unique and the culture does not fully reflect what they market.

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.
