40k for an AM is criminal

The CEO/Director/VP probably thinks whatever the going rate was in 2007 is competitive now.

$40K is an acceptably low salary for an entry level position fresh out to college. It’s truly unreasonable for anyone outside of that group, especially since you’re looking for someone with experience.


$60K is generally considered tablestakes for an AE (or AE-like) position. That sum being the top of the band feels like a red flag. This can all be corroborated with data from something like realagencysalaries.com. Raising your ceiling or at least raising your minimum to $50K will probably rub folks a bit better!

Hope there is a substantial bonus expectation with a base that low.

Do they get a bonus?

No one can even live on $40k a year. $60k is barely getting by. What apartment or house can you rent for $1600/month. Maybe this would be reasonable for PT work so someone can stack it? 🥴

Where is this role based?

In hell apparently

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
