Got an offer for my first UX job in NYC at a fairly large agency but the salary seems a bit low to me. I’ve done my research online, but was curious what you guys think a UX designer should start at!

What's the job title and what is your previous work experience?

I would say $50-$60 is good for entry level at a big agency

Agreed. You’ll leave in a year and make $10K more at your next job anyway
