The money gets better, but you’re never going to be out-earning your friends if they’re in consulting, finance, tech, etc.
Agency means strarting low. But your jumps need to be high/big. Next agency you go to - ask for a lot more because of your resume.
Starting out in agency has made me faster, more efficient and a better communicator. If you feel you’re not getting your money’s worth, I would switch agencies when you can, or go in-house. The new year is coming, take a chance.
Good question! Yes, starting out on the Agency side gives you the experience of how to do different types of PR along with the inner working of the business. That exposure will serve you well should you go brand side - or accelerate your growth if you stay in agency land.
I am here to validate you and tell you you are not imaging it. I don’t know how long you’ve been at Weber but as someone who was there for a LONG time and knew all the important people WELL, was making about 65k as an SAE when I left, before I took a job at a direct competitor doing the same thing for 100. I’d say it’s an agency thing, but I’m no longer convinced that’s the case. Definitely explore what’s out there!!
That’s just part and parcel at agencies. You only get the big bumps when you change shops, unfortunately.
I do! I left agency for a little bit and it was often commented on how I could understand the bigger picture, communicate clearly and be efficient - all things I attribute to being raised in the agency.
The money does come - promotions earn solid jumps. But don’t be shy about interviewing to understand your market price.
Thanks! This is helpful, good point RE interviewing. A professor once told me she takes at least one job interview every year (even though she has no intention of ever leaving) to keep her interview skills sharp and see what’s out there just in case. I took a call with a recruiter at a midsize local agency who reached out. I wouldn’t go there, it’s not the kind of work i want to do and would be a lateral move at best, but I’m dying to know what they’d offer me in terms of job title and pay because it was a cold recruitment call and they seemed very impressed with me
Hey Weber colleague! I’m guessing you’re a JA who is expected to put in 95% billable time and you’re burnt out.
I’m someone who started at another large agency and made all of $30k - in a large expensive metropolitan city. I was so poor! It sucked but I did it for the experience. Unfortunately all entry-level jobs at agencies pay similarly but you’re right, it does depend on the field. You’ll get paid more as you advance but it’s fairly comparable across the board for agencies.
Coach
the 95% billable triggered my ptsd 😭
There's been a lot of talk on here about how boring in-house can be, so I think that's a good instinct you have.
Lots of people will share conflicting opinions, but here are some facts:
- Many senior agency job descriptions require agency experience
- Many in-house job descriptions say agency experience is a plus
- I’ve never seen an in-house or agency job description place value on in-house experience
