Now you have to tell us which agency made you that offer, so we can ridicule them. The more information is out there, the better for all of us.

$125k for an ACD. Let me guess - Grey or...FCB. But for real, I’d only accept such low pay if your current job is a creative wasteland. There can be value in taking less pay for a better portfolio. But making $30k-$40k than the average ACD...tough pill to swallow.

Yup. Ok. Thanks for the insight.

Wow yeah. That feels really low for ACD, especially in NYC.

It’s low unless you are at a small shop or a niche shop like a place that only does social or digital ola shop.

Ok thanks. Just wanted to confirm.

So, follow up question: when it is ok to work for less than industry standard?

Yeah very low.

Actually $125-130k is on the borderline for Sr / ACD. If you are a seasoned ACD already though, yes - low.

$140-180k depending on the usual factors
