What departments have it the worst? Seems like designers at my agency are the most overworked and i doubt our senior designer is making CD money.

Creative. Last in line with the least amount of time to produce the most amount of work that everyone else was just spending weeks delaying a brief on. And god forbid we miss a deadline. And don’t forget to “have fun with it”

The best part about creative “having it the worst” is every other department will gaslight you into thinking it’s not that bad

The gaslighting i despise is when the account people act enthusiastic and say how great things are going with the work in the all agency meetings. But in reality my partner and i are pissed off the great ideas we had were killed and now we’re smacking some lipstick on a pig. Like just be honest and say it’s not great but we’re making it work.

Creative. The work can always be better.

Hello!
I’m a senior graphic designer with close to a decade in the industry with some agency experience. I’m wanting to dive into more of a surface pattern design role and wanted to know if anyone knows or has any leads for any hybrid roles in/surrounding Orange County, CA or fully remote! I have a portfolio that I can share as well.

I really don’t see many of these on linked in so I figured it’s best to speak to someone who works with or is in this type of role

Thank you!!

Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
