Average in nyc according to Glassdoor is 148k

So based on these insights and that Glassdoor average, I'll assume the common pay band to be $135k to $180k. Though I'm sure some are paid below that and some select A-teamers well above.

Thank you all, this is helpful. Cheers

I was $175k at Havas NY in 2016-2018

Yes and no. I’ve taken two gigs for the money. I got overpaid at Grey for Red Lobster ($125k as a midlevel) and Havas for Liberty Mutual. Lots of production experience but a hustle to find work worth adding to the book.

Hi Fishes, I recently made a switch and my ctc jumped from 13.5 lpa to 38 lpa.I have moved to a prdct based compny,they have given the ctc I have asked for and on top of it additional joining bonus of 6 lks & rsu.I was very happy with it because I got little more than I have asked and I didn't try anything else even though I had 50 days of notice period left. But now when I see other posts where people with lesser yoe is getting almost the same package I doubt if I settled for less
