I have a social media specialist who makes $40k per year and they love it. Fresh out of school.
40K isn’t a lot, but it’s advertising - for all you consultants, the salary benchmarks are much lower.
It’s not the same as consulting.
This was 6 years ago and salaries surely have gone up, but my friend was making 38K for one of the biggest ad agencies while being based in NYC.
I made $45k in my first job out of school in 2016 in TX. Was great experience.
I made $47k gross my first year, in California. You budget. You share rooms. You live within your means. You have a really, really hard time saving anything.
Can you believe you sound like an entitled clown now? Median income is around 50-60K and you’re saying people can’t live on 45K? So about 40% of the US population just starve and are homeless?
Came here to say this exactly!
It’s marketing. What do you expect? If you want to make more money you have to do something that requires an actual skillset.
Besides, $45K entry level isn’t all that low. That’s pretty close to the median ($48K) for Americans, and they’re offering that at the very beginning level of the career path
I don’t understand what it is that you’re asking
It's based on value
This is an oversimplification
Yes, I’d take it! It’s a real job and pays real money which continues to grow rapidly in this case. I grew up in India where me and a lot of my friends after graduating from an elite institution went on to work $400/ month jobs (which adjusting for PPP isn’t too different than this in 2009). 15 years later all of us work in 20k/month - 60k/ month (India - US) ! So take the best thing you can, learn as fast as you can and you will be fine!
It's entry level and it's in Northampton MA. Cost of living is not high there. If that same job was in Boston or NYC the pay would probably be higher
This is an entry-level support role. It’s a fair market value for what I’d expect. Don’t take the job if it’s so low for you?
Yes, I would. A marketing specialist in a medical field is a great niche to develop expertise and experience in. This is an entry level/ early career job that would give you a front row seat to how this type of work gets done and access to your co-workers to learn from. This role could easily be the start of a career that has someone warning 80k within 2-3 years and over 100k within 6.
A “specialist” is an entry level role as is a “coordinator” so, $45K is a fair wage.
I don’t agree with someone who said marketing isn’t a real skillset (lol) but if you’re wanting to capture a larger salary and you have the YOE then maybe working on your interview skills and your resume will help. If you aren’t moving into management in marketing then I would also evaluate bc lower level roles are not going to pay $100K go be a customer success rep or something that’s beyond overhead bc marketing is a cost center vs a revenue generator (idc what anyone says. 😬)
What's crazy is entry level post college jobs were paying $40k+ when I left school like... 15+ years ago. Everybody talking about inflation but there's hardly been any real wage growth outside of technology. My dad was telling me 100k was a good salary in the 90s... People still saying that. Lmao.
My daughter works for $32 K as an assistant teacher and after she does her Master in Education and gets certified, she will make $50K as a teacher in a private school with not much hope of getting annual raises other than cost of living. She could get more working in a public school in Chicago but with trade-offs of dealing with a lot rowdier and harder school environment. She understood the trade-off between this and what her friends are doing with $100K plus comp.
Lots of people do this.
Oh yeah the old get rich quick on YouTube scheme. Every poor person should just do that. They must be lazy if they won’t work an hour a week on content probably guaranteed to make them millions.
🫏 🎩 🤡
Yes companies are now offering entry level salaries for senior level experience, its disgusting.
How old are you?
It’s market pay. If they can’t find someone at that pay then they’ll increase it, simple.
Housekeepers in Florida make $150k now
Imagine living in Florida. I lived there for a couple years. I would know. What an a*s backwards place. Most of the wealth is brought in then pawned off piece by piece by careless boomers.
EY would pay you $37k for a back office financial services role in the US in 2017/2018 and every kid who couldn’t get into advisory clawed over each other to get into those roles. So yeah easy squeezy - sorry you’ve never had roommates or eaten scraps to make sure you could get started out at a job in a field you want to actually grow in.
High schoolers could do any of these roles anyway
Just have to be willing to learn and follow directions. A lot of people would love the opportunity.
Hell no!
Sometimes there’s no other option
