Pros
Opportunity to work with large brands/companies. Alright insurance
Cons
The main issue is compensation, especially for designers. Creative salaries are well below market and the project opportunities are not nearly exciting to make up for it. Company structure does not lend itself to peer or internal review, creating a strict hierarchy with little room for innovation. Management tends to contract out work that could be done by existing designers, which lowers morale. The pay inequity between designers and system engineers/project managers is appalling, considering the amount of hours the design team contributes to deliverables. Work/life balance is poor, with a high demand for late nights and no overtime offered.
