Hello Glassdoor Peers! So I have currently been working in brand management for 6 years now and I'm wondering how my fellow Brand Managers feel about future job security especially with the rise of AI and the current job market?

In addition, I have anxiety about ageism in the workplace and want to start prepping for my 50s as I'm currently in my late 30's. What technical skills or programs should I look at developing to ensure I make myself relevant in the future?

as a brand person in my 30s I admire people in brand in their 50s. Yes they might not be up to date with all the trends but the foundamentals are clear and true. My experience is that they have good instincts too. So id lean into your age/experience rather than trying to cover it up!!

Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.

Is this a red flag?
