At my agency it caps out at $160 I believe. Maybe $125-160. There’s a good chance we pay more than some other ipg agencies though.

Depending on what you're bringing to the table, you may have leverage to negotiate. Came in at $170k at IPG with a move package 3 years ago.

City? It would depend on the agency and your experience level. $110k to $125k in NYC seems right

My IPG agency has low salaries and abnormal title bands. Directors are comparable to managers / senior strategists at other agencies, I think. It depends ^

I was paid about $105 at McCann for that title

That is a lot higher than numbers I’ve heard recently! Network or independent?

Good looking out. Thanks!

I’ll add that if your strategy team leverages any analytics skill sets (up to and including advanced analytics or data manipulation) the director level bands are way too low for market conditions. Topping out around $160k sounds right from my experience.

Should a remote job’s salary be based on where I live or the company? For instance, I’m interviewing with a SF company for a role that has the ability to be remote (I live in portland).

What’s the typical approach with salary for jobs that can be remote?
