So total headcount of the entire department is 10. Equivalent to an SVP at a large agency. Low 200s.

Helpful, thank you!

Headcount ? 10 people vs 100 isn’t the same.

More importantly - how much media are you buying per year? Your salary should really be based on that.

yes and no…to some extent depends on the type of media being bought and commission.

Brand TV can overinflate the level of effort of involved. I worked on a large bank that had $100 million in brand TV spend - took 3 people to manage it.

After a long and extensive interview process (2 months & 12 rounds of interviews) I finally heard back that they are very interested in offering me the job. My Current base is $135k (in NJ) and my ask is $180K (in NYC). But base comp ceiling for the position grade is $165k and they are willing to offer one time payment to make up for the gap between the offer & the ask. Any thoughts? The role has very upward potential in next couple of years.

What are other comp elements I can negotiate? Thx!

Hi fishes, my previous employer has not given me the money for Earned Leaves, they are saying it's not in their policy.. I have a variable bonus of 100000. Out of this they have given only 19,000 in the month of December after 6 months of joining...But they are not giving me any bonus after completing 1 year and 2 months.. They have stopped my appraisal as well...

So in total, I lost my appraisal money, bonus and Earned Leaves money... I feel betrayed and cheated...
