Generally speaking as agencies have terrible pay, even the big ones unless you’re super senior.

Although the ones with a good creative rep do attract some talented fun people (who accept lower pay for the engagement of the work, brand, etc), I haven’t been super impressed with the talent below a senior level when I’ve engaged with agencies on average - just don’t pay enough for good talent.

Curious too. I feel like they pay way less but their work is prob less technical focused and more design / creativity focused

More creative, but overall compensation has been hammered as business has moved away from these agencies and toward ACN and Deloitte

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.
