Full time? How can anyone survive on that rate if they want a family, a home and any quality of life?

SP2 would 60/hr freelance integrated producer director be low? Tons of shooting and post experience but only a few years fully producing.

Yes should be $130k+

How many years of experience do you have?

That doesn’t feel wrong for that experience level. You could potentially push up to 110k. Senior producer salaries vary greatly- you’ll see senior producers with more than double your experience level. It is almost impossible to get to 100k as a mid, so you’re in a bit of a tough middle ground area

I make $145k

Damn. I am at 7 years and make nowhere near that in NYC. Time to move on

yes, i’m at 80k

i make that as a mid

I started at 130k in LA for Sn. Producer

What’s dumb SP2 is that you don’t know the market. You’re a “Producer” negotiating is your job!

That’s low, unless you don’t have much experience.

135k, 7 years experience

Good question.
130k is a starting salary.
It's important to share salary info as producers are often taken advantage of.

The blue collar collective does a great job of sharing editor salaries. They have a list that's updated yearly i believe. It shows a person's age, experience, format, gender, race, freelance/staff, union/non, and rate. It helps when editors want to get a sense of what they should charge. I would love if other roles had this type of sheet as well.

Yes, that’s absurd for a Sr in NYC. I expect to pay $120 for that level in So Cal.

Attempting to transfer from a big 4 in Chicago to New York. Received my offer for New York and saw that the offer was lower than initial offer. Talked to recruiter and they didn’t budge on salary.

Hi Fishes,

I have attended two interviews with cognizant for the same role. From that, I have got an offer letter from one panel and I am discussing with the HR about to make some salary revise.
Unfortunately, the second panel also processed my profile and it got short listed and they come back for a talk to process the offer letter. Now the first panel HR called me and asked about the second process why it got happened.
Does this results in any drawback for the offer letter i have got already?

I started working as a consultant with EY 8 months ago. Even though I'm content and learning a lot there, I think there are places where I might easily earn more money. I received a job offer last week from Alvarez & Marsal to work as a consultant at the Transaction Advisory Department (financial due diligence team), where I will be paid more fairly (salary & bonus). Should I accept it? Or would leaving EY that early not be wise?
