Traditional Office Job vs. Remote Job

Traditional Office Job

Traditional graphic designers work internally for one company or for an agency that contracts out multiple jobs. Most work is project-based and is either print or digital. Designers typically work in a collaborative office space with co-workers.

Remote Job

Remote graphic designers work solo or as part of a small team. They can work from anywhere there’s a computer and Wi-Fi. Most projects are fast-paced and require continual iterations and edits. Their clients typically set the deadlines. Projects vary and change often depending on demand.
