There are pro and cons to everything but I really enjoy the benefit of working within a team that is growing together, progressing and focusing on one big picture.

I used to be an In-House artist at a Bank. I was actually surprised that a corporate bank needed a graphic designer. It was a bit hard because it was a big company yet I was the only artist there. That was during my first year. They hired another one but he focused on videos while I'm on the prints. There were a lot of urgent projects and the revisions are limitless. I guess that's also a downside of working in-house, they can take you for granted. Though I've learned a lot so I'm glad I've experienced this.

Its so cool that you touched this topic. It took me a long time to figure out my place in the design & illustration world, as I've tried an agency route that did not work out at all, then I've worked as an in-house designer and got bored really quickly. It literally took me 3 years to figure out that freelance designer & illustrator career is the one for me. I look forward to watching the rest of this series, and I hope it can help someone to figure out what's right for them much faster.

I honestly started out as a freelancer and I like the flexibility for the most part because it forced me to learn the language of business. To deal with CEO's and stakeholders directly while still providing great user experiences for their clients. I want to work for small agency or studio and not have to climb the big corporate ladder, so I can grow in my design practice and be well diverse in many different industry projects.

I've only ever worked for an in-house type position. However, technically I'm a contractor in my current role so it's a blend of two. I've never really been interested in an agency role as I listened too much about rumors such as super long hours and it not being a pleasant working situation. Of course I'm probably wrong and I'm sure it's great to work on a variety of design projects and never get bored. I feel like s con is there's less of these roles available and therefore harder to get into. What I love about working in house is there's usually more opportunity, incredible benefits and pay (especially here in the Bay Area for tech companies). For now, this is definitely what I want to continue to focus on and eventually work for a large brand like Adobe.

I've been working as a graphic designer for a little under two years now. At first I was just doing freelance, then I landed an inhouse role at a transport company, plus the college I studied at (both are part-time jobs so it equals full-time in total). I also do freelancing on the side. Both have their pro's and cons. Inhouse work is stable, but sometimes you have to wait for the creative jobs to come in (some of your day-to-day stuff is just regular marketing collateral) so having freelance on the side is great. I'd love to one day see what an agency is like as well. From my experience inhouse roles outnumber agency roles by like 10:1.

Tried all three - Agency had a fast pace , learnt a lot about design, but little reward. In house i found to be stressful but more financially rewarding, freelancing was difficult and not very rewarding , although i see myself going back to freelancing once i have more experience. Currently in house for a software company. start off in agency to learn skills, move in house to specialise in an area and grow contacts, then begin freelancing using contacts you have established to set yourself up to have your own business / company :)

if the main company you work for is okay with it, definitely! But some companies have clauses in the contract where they own the IP you create while working there, so you have to be careful about that (so that you can legally transfer the copyright of the work you do to your freelance clients). All the freelance work i've done has been on the side of another job :)

All 3 types have their pros & cons. Big Advertising Agencies: long hours, big egos, big ladder to climb, big budgets, mostly great clients, you can build a great folio but can burn down quite easily. In-house: secure work, normally you are alone as a designer or part of a small group, so you are the expert and people listen to your ideas and respect your position (you kinda control the design) but you can get sick of the branding and it's hard to move up in your career. Generally good pay. Freelance: you can pick and choose your clients, but you have to hustle to find good ones. Plus you will spend 30% of your time designing and 70% writing emails, invoicing, chasing money, going to meetings etc (rough proportions, you get the point). You will be a small agency and have to do all the work or contract copywriters, developers or whatever you don't want (or know) to do. Depending on your personality, diligence, area and style, you can really succeed having just good clients, constant work and do only what you do best on your style. In this case you will like an artist, rather than freelancer designer. And you have to work hard to get to that point. There is an other model not covered in this video, but works really well in Australia, and I believe in some other parts of the world: The hired gun freelancer: you send your portfolio to a specialised recruitment agency, talk to them personally in the early stages and then you get gigs in different agencies all around town. I did that for a couple of years and it was great: there was always work, I used to move from one agency to the next, expanded my network, worked with a massive variety of clients and types of projects (branding, print, digital, signage, packaging, animations etc) and didn't need to settle if the agency or manager were a pain in a**. It worked very well, until one of the places I was offered me a full time job doing what I like the most (motion graphics) for a salary that was above any other job offer I have found at the time. Although this salary was below my ratings as a hired gun, it gave me the security I needed at the time, with my daughter about the be born. I hope this helps. Sorry the long post, no potato.

Although I love the freedom of freelancing, I can't do it cause I don't have a business mindset at all and I would be trampled on by clients. I don't like the agency route cause I can't keep up with the fast-paced hecticness. So I guess I'm the in-house type for smaller companies cause I like the sense of community. There might also be another option in which you freelance for a company? So maybe you'll have more freedom and won't be fully constrained under one company but you also don't need to deal with finding clients and all the business stuff.

Right after school I applied for both agencies and inhouse, I didn't really have experience from any of them so didn't quite know what to expect. After a bit over a year at an agency though I can definitely say this kind of client work is not for me! Have considered doing freelancing though, I think it would be a bit better if I was able to choose the clients a bit more myself.

I'm still a college student , but I'm graduating in December and think that freelancing would be awesome to start out with because of the freedom, however I don't know If I'll be able to handle the business side of freelancing . So now I'm thinking maybe starting as an in-house designer would be good , so I can sharpen my design skills then move on to working at a studio/agency , and then later in my career start to freelance .

i would definitely recommend trying to work as part of a design team to sharpen your skills! I honestly learned just as much from my team mates in my first few years after college as I did IN college.

+kiran mohan personally I don't think they're a great thing to use. My friend Brent Galloway has a great video explaining why on his channel (just search his name and you'll find it) but basically I feel like you end up doing work for cut-rate prices. It's better to be able to control the process yourself rather than go through a website!

Hi Charlie, Paresh here... Many thanks for all your support. I also do freelance on Upwork from last 7-8 years and completely depends on it. I really have to struggle a lot to get hired regularly. Please suggest us more secure ways to get long term jobs either on upwork or any other similar website... Many thanks.. God bless you..

+Paresh Shah the rates you can earn on upwork tend to be very low because the kind of clients who use the site are looking for a cheap deal. I'd advise building up your own client list and dealing with clients directly rather than relying on Upwork.

I really like working with a close-knit team of people! I also want to do design for social change, and I can't really get that at a big agency. My ideal place would be something like Firebelly in Chicago.
