Having prelim talks about going client side with a marquee brand with multiple agencies. My role would be a new position they’d create (still undefined). How does comp compare client side vs agency?

Whatever you do get your max NOW. The big difference on client side vs agency is at an agency your com can skyrocket if you are good in just a few years.

Client side the max most Fortune 50 companies will pay is 3% but you have to be top 10% performer in a very process system. You are likely looking at 2% increases annually.

So if you don’t get it don’t think it’s like an agency and you can get it later. Big companies don’t make exceptions - ever.

I assume you should make more and work less. Maybe you’ll get a proper office too. And damn, they might treat you with respect too

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?
