This is how designers get exploited. I joined Lander studio (@Praha37v ) without a contract. No written agreement. No notice period. Just mutual trust. I never joined to earn a lot of money - but to learn new things, meet new people, build meaningful connections, in general to gain experience & grow. Structure was simple: – ₹40,000/month base – ~10% incentive on client projects I worked on I showed up consistently for ~6 months. Delivered on multiple client projects. Worked over 12 hrs a day with no fixed holidays. Then things changed. When I decided to leave, surprisingly I was given 3 options to get my pending dues: Work 1 more month → no incentives paid Work 2 months, complete 10 templates → 50% incentives + salary Work 3 months, complete 15 templates → 80% incentives + salary (That’s ~1 template every 3 days. 12+ hrs a day.) And obviously I didn’t agree to these terms. Now, despite multiple follow-ups, my dues are still pending. Breakdown: – ₹40,000 (salary of the last month) – ~$900 from 3 client projects Total: ~₹1.3L Instead of clearing the dues, I am also seeing the work I contributed in the last month to being used commercially on framer marketplace with a completely different account (not his usual account). I’m not here to create any drama - just asking for what’s fair. Asking the pay for 300+ hrs of hardwork. Praha, please clear the pending amount. At last I just want to say that I am not only standing up to get my money, but also for myself, for my right, for what I deserve. And honestly it’s too much stress for me as a 18y/o, so want to resolve it as soon as possible. Fellow designers: If this feels unfair to you too, Would really appreciate every kind of support in bringing this post visibility so that no other designers go through this trauma. Thank you.
