This slide is from the Siftly Strategy Salary Report 9/15/18.

@AD1 I thought about that too. Seeing as they're the highest paid of all and chose not to list their ethnicity, I'm thinking they're white men at the top of our silo. Guys who knew their salaries would make the wage gap even bigger for this dataset. 🤷🏾‍♂️

like

This is self reported. Any strat worth their salt knows what that means, beyond the small sample size for blacks, let alone how small the other populations are

like

Interesting report, but I’d be a bit cautious on the sample size as the report stated. I wish they had interviewed at least 80 people and have disclosed their cities, so that it would validate even further the research

Thanks for posting this 🙌🏾

@Analyst1 Siftly only does recruitment for strategists. I doubt they have/will produce reports on other disciplines.

Darn. Thanks for the reply tho.

Siftly does recruitment for like every role now (and they email about that expansion constantly)

These infographics are poorly executed. They’re confusing

That report is garbage. Any decent analyst should be able to see that. Not to mention the bias of a recruiting firm putting it out.

What this chart does NOT show is that these are people doing the same role, same experience level in the same city.

Siftly does not show this because their sample size is too small.

1) We know for a fact, that women, people of color are more heavily concentrated at the bottom of the ladder right now than white men. (There are more white male CSOs). This means the respondent pool reflected tris.

2) For all we know, 30 out of 36 black respondents are jr-mid levels working in lowing-paying Chicago and LA

3) For all we know, 24 out of 36 black respondents are in lower-paying strategy roles like digital and social.

YES I know for a fact (from other sources) that racial and gender income gaps for the same role in the same city are real. But I also know that this Siftly report does NOT tell us that.

It does do a phenomenal job of making planners like myself feel unhappy with my employer and like I should start looking for a job. Maybe I should sign up for Siftly? 🤔 (Get it @SDS1?)

smart

Who the others then?

Does Siftly have PDFs of other agency roles? Anyone know where I can find them?

@SP1 yep I didn't realize that until now. Hopefully we'll see a report on all disciplines soon.

Almost every survey ever has company backing. True independent surveys rarely exist.

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
