Pros
Opportunity to work on a well-known international fashion media brand Exposure to fast-paced editorial production and real-world publishing workflows Collaborative environment with editors and creative teams across departments Good learning experience for building adaptability and handling multiple projects at once Strong brand name that adds value to personal portfolio and career experience
Cons
Team headcount has been significantly reduced compared to previous years, leaving a very small team to manage increasing workloads, especially during peak periods Taking annual leave can be challenging, as new incoming requests continue during absences and are absorbed by remaining teammates, making it difficult to plan for multiple days off Roles frequently expand beyond original responsibilities, with designers often expected to cover multiple disciplines without corresponding support or role clarity Although there are structured systems and procedures in place, workflows can become dysfunctional at times due to frequent changes and last-minute urgent turnaround requests New team members are frequently thrown into the deep end with very limited onboarding or training Management style can feel unsupportive at times, contributing to chronic stressful work environment
