After trying to make the shift from agency to in house for years, I just got offered a full-time digital marketing manager role at a tech company in the Bay Area! In researching salaries, the range seems huge in the Bay. Any advice on how to determine a reasonable number to bring to the table?

Do you have an insider who can help with the internal salary range? Remember that salaries are lower because you have other goodies that are part of TTC, including equity and bonus.

There are no mistakes. There are only signs.

Taking a job that seems interesting at first and later realizing it is not right for you is a sign.

It’s an arrow pointing you away from that type of work.

And knowing what you don’t want helps you get closer to discovering what you do want.

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.

Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
