    odinie,

    to answer your question, I guess I'm "ok" with the in-house experience. The positives are it's easy– you are simply using the same two logos, the same three colors, etc. The downfall is there really is no challenge. Depending on the company most of the cutting edge work will go to an outside studio and your job is to follow suit on the lower level stuff. Dealing with the bad apples sucks tremendously because you can't get rid of them– you have to deal with them everyday. But you are home at 5pm, have health and dental insurance, and have your weekends.
