How strict is Publicis on matching salaries? My agency is folding into a Publicis agency and their starting salary for my new role is higher than I currently make. Trying to get a pulse check before chatting with HR!

No such thing. Agency salaries are a meritocracy in my experience. You won’t just go in and earn the same. I know creatives on the same roles with 50k difference between them because one has delivered Cannes awards and the other hasn’t.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
