Designer’s Salary Survey Revealed

 

 

 

 

A New Designer’s Salary survey indicates little to no salary growth in recent years, and a difficult time for graduating design students seeking regular employment. But then again, I’ve been saying all along that business is moving more and more towards contract and freelance workers (they have much less overhead). Disadvantage: less job stability (in an economy where stability is shaky at best anyway), no benefits, constant work search – Advantage: higher pay rates when you work, variety of jobs, you’re your own boss.
