Klaviyo Design Podcast Episode 2
The Climate of Design: In-house, Agency, and Freelance
In this second episode of the Klaviyo design podcast, we talk about what life is like on the other side of the proverbial fence — reflecting on experiences as designers at agencies, as freelancers, and life as part of an in-house team. We discuss what was exciting, what was frustrating, and what motivated us all to end up in-house. Jake Cohen, Director of Product, bravely weathers his new podcast fame to join us again as moderator.
In this episode:
- Working at agencies can help you discover your career path as a designer (and why contracting might not)
- What you should know if you think you want to work on an in-house team and why ownership over your work can be a double-edged sword
- Why we won’t blame a client when things go wrong (mostly)
