For a company who claims to be a world leader in user experience, their website is surprisingly mediocre.
What specifically do you think is lacking in their website?
Well done typography. More specifically, the typographic color is far, far too dark.
Everything is fine...but that's just it. The website is just fine. For a "world leader" in user experience you'd think they'd be knocking it out of the park or doing something unique that shows their expertise.
