Pluspunten
In my time there I worked with a couple nice people. Some great team lunches in the west loop and got to design adverts for several cool venues.
Minpunten
As a designer for Project Farma you will also be supporting Now Open Project. (A bar/restaurant management ring) Consider this a review for both. In my time at these companies I was working out of the CEO's west loop apartment, sharing a table with other coworkers. I was actually asked my first week to put together a coat stand from IKEA. Startup vibes are hardcore here and you will be expected to adapt. There are also some strong personalities who will not hesitate to share opinions. Particularly if you do not share any similar strong opinions or interests in restaurants or cooking expect to feel like somewhat of an outsider as that will be daily discussion. I also found a lot of brown nosing towards management and the chefs who sometimes stop in - so expect to be in the middle of that. There was always a weird sense of political hierarchy here. The CEO has a big ego on his shoulders and does not tolerate much in the way of mistakes. Maybe a good thing, maybe bad. As a designer I would be less annoyed by this if the project briefs were clear, but this was only sometimes the case when I worked there. As a designer. expect several scrawled out paper to work from. I was paid 20/hr, which in my opinion is not enough to be working at two companies at once. A few months or so in, I was fired due to "misunderstanding" a project brief for a powerpoint. Don't expect much in the way of job security here. DEFINITELY do not pick up your life in any way for a design position here.
