Coach
Depends on how old you are and what you want. Personally, I was an older junior with a wife and a dog. No way in hell I was having roommates and no way in hell we could afford NYC without them. So I started my career in the middle of the country. Got a few years under my belt and a couple promotions (ignore the title here, it's old) and then made my way to the coast. I chose the other city that smells like piss though and went to SF instead of NYC.
Not even on the same level. NYC is world class.
Chicago should be better than it is, but yeah.
Everyone should live in NYC once, but leave before it makes you hard.
Yep four years was enough for me
NYC is overhyped. Find your own niche in Chicago
NYC probably has better creative opportunities. Chicago is mostly holding company agencies, and there isn’t a whole lot of good actual client work coming out of any of them.
I much rather live in Chicago but the job opportunities are much better in NYC.
Find a fully remote NYC job, make NYC money and live wherever you want
If only…
NYC of course.
NYC for a higher starting salary and faster career progression. I started in SF and out-earn many of my friends at the same level who started in less expensive cities, simply because I had a higher starting salary
NYC while you're young.
If you can afford it, NYC.
Bang out a handful of years in nyc and you can take that best in class experience and crush it in any other city with the nyc to boot. In my experience, other cities and agencies see nyc experience as a huge plus and will pay for it for whenever you decide to leave nyc
NYC. Can’t get decent bagels in Chicago.
Honestly, why not look for remote roles? Youll get the same amount of money and can live somewhere more affordable
I’ve just started as a junior cw in NY and am loving it! Also there’s so many agencies here so if it doesn’t work out you can literally walk down the street and go to another one :p
NYC without question. More agencies, better pay, cooler city blah blah.
