I really wanna get out of NY, even if just for a few years, but I feel like most low COL places don’t have great agencies or work. Anyone make a move for a bit?

I loved Denver. I don’t think I could do Chicago winters. Austin intrigued me.

I think my fear is moving out of NY and not being able to come back. I’ve heard it’s very hard to get back here. I’m also a total introvert and struggle with the idea of starting a new life, essentially.

Go to LA and you can have twice the space for the same price and tons of hiking to be an introvert. I live in LA as a freelancer and actually work more for NY agencies. Quality of work is pretty close it quality of life is way higher.

There are local agencies that make good regional work all over the place. It doesn’t have to be working on national campaigns.

I left the US and traveled and worked for agencies across Europe and Asia for 10 years. Best thing I ever done. Opened my mind, forced me out of my comfort zone, got to live and work in different cultures, the food is amazing.

Hi! I interviewed for a Digital Marketing Analyst for an agency for Data Center and Telecom PR/ Tech. Since we are virtual country wide, he asked what my salary requirement would be for this role.

Are Colorado-specific salary ranges even close to what I can expect in Chicago in general? Or are those completely made up?
