Agency folks who have yearly bonuses written into your contract, is this only for GAD / VP level and above? I’m hearing there’s a dire need for talent among agencies and I’m wondering if comp will match. (I’m no longer at TBWA, and might be interested in GAD or Strat director roles)

I’m not at an agency but I recently took a full time in-house job and negotiated to get a bonus. Normally only senior leadership at that place gets it, but I asked anyway and they said yes. Just trying to say that bonus seems much easier to negotiate than salary so it never hurts to ask :)

Oh yeah at my previous in-house job everyone had a bonus (different % at different levels) which is why I even thought to ask

had a large in-house agency recently offer me 15% at the senior level.
