If you are in NY there is not much difference except the title and money. Just watch the politics and in experienced clients who don’t know anything

Yes in NY. Thank you!

I went from AD to VP AD and there’s literally nothing different about the role. Not sure what the VP part does for me other than getting a higher salary 🤷

The “VP” is also for dumb ass clients who need the ego boost of only dealing with “VPs only.” That’s why there are tons of VPs in NY agencies. They have inflated titles.

Im in a junior position, have excellent feedback, work hard. I make very little $. I had 2 job offers and told my current company I couldn’t afford to stay there. They immediately matched. 4 months later I followed up and the timing of the adjustment will now align with the timing cost of living increases for inflation which apparently I’m ineligible for. Should this exempt me from a cost of living increase due the adjusted salary 5 months after we agreed to this?

Hey Friends! Looking for advice!

My wife is a Chartered Accountant with 7+ years of experience as credit manager, underwriting loans with some leading banks in India. She just got her EAD and is looking for jobs, open to switch profiles as well. Do you think she would fit in for any role here in Seattle, WA? She has been a star performer and promoted twice in the last 3 years. One problem is companies look for US experience which she does not have, we just moved here early this year.

Thinking of exiting to pre-retirement type job. Something non-profit or at least beneficial with decent benefits. Any suggestions?
