Got a 6.6% raise and am just looking to feel better about it because I feel like that’s a good percentage but ultimately it means like $75 extra a week. Before taxes. So I’m feeling meh.

Enjoy the money. Negotiate better next time. Dm me if you wanna strategize I just negotiated a 30% raise would love to give a fellow young creative some bullets in the chamber for next time.

I mean is it lame? People say 3-5 is normal so I feel like this was good. I just don’t make tons to begin with so it doesn’t help as much.

6.6% as a raise is above average. If you were promoted, that would be a different conversation

OP, I was stuck in the “tiny raises cycle” and got a 30% increase by leaving my agency. It’s a bummer but that’s how it works sometimes

That’s good. ACD1 is right. Without jumping to another shop, you’ll likely only get cost of living raises. Unless you are really valuable and fight for it

Totally know the feeling but hey, it’s better than nothing! Every little bit counts toward your goal salary, even if it’s just creeping along

That’s a “we like you and want to keep you” raise. Maybe play the confidence they have in you to get on better projects. Nail a really good campaign and then move agencies for a big raise. Play the long game.

Gratitude is a helluva drug. Doesn’t mean you can’t strategize a next move, but cultivating the skill of acknowledging gratitude will manifest itself daily. Without that, no raise (or anything else in life) is going to bring much ease beyond the initial dopamine rush

Sucks, but if you want real money you gotta move. Got a 25% increase with just a lateral move, which I am currently ok with because there are more opportunities here than my last agency. Really just depends on what your goals are.

Thank you! I was just in a funk about how long it takes to get that salary up there. I don’t currently want to leave but know eventually I will have to if I want that big raise. Making a big push to be promoted next year. But it helps that I feel like I’m valued enough to get a higher percentage raise than they have to give.

Copywriter 1 a 30 percent raise same agency no promotion?

As long as you keep up with inflation or above it you’re good.

I recently got a promotion in my company to work as a Junior CSR in Commercial Lines but I also got a job offer elsewhere to work in the entertainment insurance industry as an Associate. I got the RIBO license in January. The job offer pays more than my promotion but once I told my manager I had this offer she said they are willing to match that offer, however I wouldn’t see an increase in salary for a while. I don’t know what to do because both jobs sound really interesting. Any advice?

Hi all, my current title is Motion Graphics Designer. I just finished my probation (6 months which is very uncommon). I proactively asked my manager for a review because I negotiated to have "title review" included in my contract when I got hired as they didn't want to offer Senior Motion Designer. The department head (my manager's boss) is happy with the work I delivered. How should I prepare for this title review and pay raise negotiation? Currently getting paid 88k. I am expecting 95-100k

I’m starting to realize that your performance depends a lot more on leadership’s perception of what you’re doing than what you’re actually doing. You could be kicking ass if but if you’re not intentional about getting airtime with leadership for visibility, then it affects your promotion…am I right?

EY should have to give promotion to their staaf 4 to senior 1 whose experience is more than 6. 5 years... Otherwise this group will contribute more to EY attrition after compensation annoncement... This is my calculated guess
