Look. Chicago is fucking awesome. We have all four seasons, affordable rent, decent public transportation, and a lake.

You can have your NYC and your LA.

I don't know the Chicago market but it's low for LA or NY. I was also just promoted to Sr. with a raise from 100-120k. If you love where you are at and your salary is fulfilling your needs, don't sweat it. But since you just got a title bump and, I assume, a raise to go with it, you may not have wiggle room to ask for more right now. Wait six months and either jump or ask for more.

But also you are super young, so big ups on the fast rise, but it may mean you missed some non title bump pay raises.

I was just promoted from mid-level

Seems good to me. Especially for how young you are.

It’s a bit low. Senior level should be around 3 digits. But all depends the size of agency + your portfolio. Some people get the position faster but the portfolio does not reflect that
