    at agency you learn how to pitch and sell (yourself and your work)

    you get about 20-30% less at salary with a promise of millions.

    at startup, you will be the lead designer, production and qa. you learn a lot about launches and technology.

    startups are great place to find people you click with to start your own shit.

    at agency, you are more exposed to design / art.

    at startup, you are more exposed to ux and product design.

    • Almost everyone I started business projects with I met at agencies. I find startup people are usually too caught up trying to make it work to consider new opportunities.zarkonite
