How about joining an established company you respect? I expect it may be better, but not way better, after all is the same industry, but market leaders move slower than startup and hopefully you can find one that’s a tiny bit ethical..
Think Brave, Mozilla, LetsEncrypt.. etc
- designerwoe 5y agoThis is something I've been considering. I think it will take a fair amount of portfolio reworking to present myself right for an established company, but that's something I need to tackle in any case. A concern I have with this route, though, is finding a role with enough impact. I'm under no delusion that I could jump to the top of the pile and lead design at any of those companies, given my résumé, and I've found I get pretty frustrated following another designer's lead. Which I think is less an ego thing and more to do with the fundamentally differing design approaches I mentioned. Thanks for reading my post—I appreciate the suggestion!
