Even more reasons to love working at Foolproof

A couple of years ago, we penned this classic.

Most of the sentiment still rings true, but I’ve taken some time out to capture what people have to say today - about why Foolproof is such a great place to work.

Hint - it’s because we each put time and effort into making our working environment the very best it can be across, London, Singapore and our home, Norwich.

So, without further ado – here’s why I keep showing up to work:

What do you enjoy most about the work you do?

• Having the creative freedom to approach problems in a way which I feel is most appropriate - Joel

• The challenge of working on hugely different design challenges, from super complex b2b payment card management portals, to visually exciting car company brochureware websites. It really keeps you on your toes - Mike
