I dont want to have a professional portfolio of bad work, but do most places understand that it was a first job and know that you arent doing the greatest work?


One thing that you need to understand is that most companies don't care about "effort" or "potential". Unlike schools, which try to compensate for bad circumstances, companies just hire the guy who they think will make them the most money.

That said, it's certainly better to work than not work, and there's no reason that a bad shop should limit your own potential--worst case, you can easily do your own stuff on the side, pro bono for good causes if you have to.
