Pros

The people I worked with on our creative team were all talented, kind people.

Cons

None of our talents were used to the fullest extent, OR we were being given disorganized creative direction that would result in multiple revisions with improper communication. Higher ups above the art directors of our team were wishy washy on standardizing certain stylistic choices for our branded style guides for character, color and style direction. I was initially an illustrator, but also (like others on the team) were pulled in different directions to pickup slack from other parts of production, like layout/graphic design/print production, which is fine (since I had those skills to provide). Overall, it could have been a better experience if things were streamlined and the leadership was stronger, especially when it came to the dialogue and common sense discussed when cross-collaborating with art directions, our team, and the stakeholders. The chaos was not fun.

Pros

Pay is competitive. Remote work. A few days a week of regional travel at the federal compensation rate. This has been an educational entry-level job to learn the basic stakeholders and sales cycles for K-12 curriculum. The people I work with are great and knowledge/experience is a strong resource at this company.

Cons

The higher leadership of the organization does not foster a positive, collaborative culture. Different teams/regions work in silos. Any collaboration and communication happens primarily by our own individual efforts. Also, systems change yearly. It's difficult for everyone to adapt, and as a result the sales team has little faith in following the process. Job security is iffy. There has been continuous talk of eliminating my position in my state for over a year now.
