Pros

My coworkers were amazing and I still miss them to this day. I had one of the best managers I've ever had. Remote work. Great PTO. Okay-ish health benefits.

Cons

Constantly increasing demands that lead to no increase in reward... In fact, they lead to seemingly endless layoffs. Automation and off shoring has resulted in horrific experiences on behalf of both inkers and customers and decreased the value of both customink's products and services... Which is embarrassing as a once proud inker. I used to rave about how great customink was as a place to work and supplier of promotional goods but after these past couple years, I usually hope people don't ask me too much about it. Initially the pay was great but after years of no increases and inflation, I ended with less than I started with in terms of monetary value.

Pros

-Can be fully remote -Great vacation leave -Great benefits -No micromanaging

Cons

I worked there for many years, around a decade, and as every year passed they continued to cut back on employee perks. Management has said some questionable things during meetings that made employees feel like trash including that we are paid too much for the job that we do. They basically laid off the entire art team in 2022 in favor of outsourcing and closed down many of their in house production facilities. It was ugly. I guess they did what they had to do to stay afloat, however, it really contradicted the family/team work makes the dream work values that they play into your entire career with them. They also changed the pay structure, so you could no longer make an unlimited amount of pay the harder you worked. They capped everyone's salary. Also, it's my personal opinion that if you are too good at a job, they will intentionally keep you in that position and not advance your career.
