Is 55 - 60k a livable salary to live in NYC. This is for a junior art director position with their location in So ho. I know that salary wouldn’t work in Manhattan, unless I’m wrong, so I’m guessing I would have to live in a different borough?

I graduated in May 2020 and found myself excepting a Junior Art Director position in Healthcare. I never saw myself in health but with many agencies having hiring freezes I decided to get some experience and save up some money in the meantime. Fast forward one year; I’ve added a new campaign to my website and I’m starting to apply to consumer agencies again. 
Any tips to help me make the transition? Any place to avoid? Who have you noticed is hiring again? Thanks in advance :)

Good morning. I am currently a senior associate in BugLaw, and I have applied to several trial attorney jobs in Chicago offices of federal agencies since the start of the pandemic.

For those of us falling prey to the necessary evil of client-mandated use of influencers, do you think the creative team has a role and should be the ones leading and briefing these “creators” or can they come up with their own ideas and the client has to suffer the consequences of poor decision making?

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.
