Work closely with your McCullough Creative teammates to fully understand the scope of projects that come through our shop, problem solve, and devise the most effective way to complete them.
Help prepare files for print, laser, and CNC router.

Growth mindset

When you’re not changing, you’re through. Exploration in new, weird areas is what grows this company—both in the types of projects we take on and the skills our employees pick up. Because if you’re in your comfort zone, you’re not trying hard enough. That’s why we align our employees’ passions with their development goals, development goals with company goals, and company goals with client needs. It’s the Circle of Life, and life is gooood!

Employee Testimonials

We pay them, but not to say this

“The best thing about being a part of the MC team is the people. I get to be surrounded by incredibly talented coworkers who I look forward to seeing every day. No matter your role, it’s always ‘all hands on deck’ as one team to make each project the best it can be. Even on the most stressful days, everyone always keeps a positive and productive attitude.”
– Abby Meyers

“The opportunity that McCullough Creative offers me, as a designer, is incredible. Each day presents itself with unique challenges. However, with the right tools, resources, and being surrounded by some of the industry’s most talented people, I find my solutions are just as unique—and I learn something every day. “
– Annie Koelker

“36 years and counting! Never a dull moment. From technology changes to staff growth and client project scope, we have been able to adapt and grow as a company. You enjoy coming to work because of the people and variety of projects you get to work on each and every day.”
– Jeff Wilson

“Building is what drives me. There is nothing better than seeing an idea become reality. Taking a pile of raw materials and transforming them into a 10-foot-tall cutaway oil filter, or crawling through an underwater turtle tank, McCullough Creative has given me the opportunity to push my boundaries of what I thought possible.”
– Randy Vaassen

Meat Days

In our minds, not a lot beats burning up some burgers and having a feast. We also have random potlucks throughout the year and even a Soup Day competition, complete with a custom trophy awarded to the soup de gimme-some-more.

Book Club

Calling all bookworms! This group meets periodically to choose a book, assign chapters, and discuss each person’s take on the subject matter. The only rule is books can’t be business related—it’s strictly for the art!

Community Involvement

Donating diapers, buying gifts during the holidays, working the booth at Reflections in the Park—even building cardboard boats! Our employees find all kinds of ways to give back.

Summer Outing

Late summer/early fall we’re always sure to let a little loose as a group. Picnics and baseball games have been par for the course lately, but we’re always open to ideas.

Holiday Party

What happens at the holiday party stays at the holiday party. Except for this photo. And that’s all we can say about that.

Corporate Events

We’re all about getting involved in the industry and encourage our employees to dive into professional development.

Those sweet, sweet bennies

Employee retention is definitely a focus and strength of ours, which we help ensure with a variety of benefits. From numerous health and insurance offerings to customized career planning, flexible scheduling, and year-round events, we understand the key to growing as a company is investing in our employees’ growth.
