ahhhhh the bliss of ignorance, IP (intellectual property, which includes designs) developed during company time or derived from company assets (including other IP owned by said company) is owned completely by the company, a patent (design) maybe attributed to a person or group of persons but is still owned by the company, as such said individuals have no claim or rights to sue any other persons/entity over infringements to said patents, it is up to the company whether they choose to enforce and/or share any percentage of the royalties obtain from the patents with said individual (usually written into the terms of employment contract)
