Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.

Pluspunten

Broadly, Imagine Learning provides an opportunity to grow and develop your skills if not your actual career. The work-life balance is good to great, depending on time of year, and middle-management and senior leaders are generally supportive if not always biased to action. The people you work with are the reason you show up every day.

Minpunten

For the last several years, Imagine Learning has been in a slow but steady decline both financially and culturally. Revenue targets continue to be out of line with market realities and missed. This has resulted in reduced or outright skipped pay raises and bonuses. This has also triggered an increasing focus on AI-based tools and workflows, without proper overhead and resourcing to learn and integrate them intelligently. The company has let long-tenured, respected and talented staff slowly bleed away and has done very little to address the absence left behind. There is an unspoken theme of "do more with less" that has set in and people complain about burnout almost weekly. Coupled with an ever-changing organizational structure and a lack of clear, decisive and consistent vision, the chaos-to-order balance is starting to tip the wrong direction. I would have wholeheartedly recommended Imagine 3-4 years ago but not today.
