Pros

Excellent benefits if you take advantage of them. Fast moving industry which is constantly changing.

Cons

Limited career progression despite the growth. The role doesn't always get the recognition it deserves and at times the role is not clearly defined. Is becoming too bureaucratic. Too many on-lookers without any accountability or responsibility. Each change, such as HR direct, feels like an anchor on the organisation, dragging it backwards.

Pros

- Amazing work culture and work life balance - As a designer the world is your oyster of how you want to grow and develop - Manager is amazing at communicating your needs and empathizing with you - Everyone is driven to be a better designer and so much support from everyone

Cons

- Having to work sometimes really early or nighttime due to time zone differences with some of the people we work with - Projects & goals sometimes have to change in the week to better fit business needs and team goals.

Pros

Great work life balance Supportive environment

Cons

If you fall in the less than 3 years experience bucket, your best shot is the new graduate positions which have terrible pay and full-time employment after 2-years is not guaranteed.
