Is 140k normal for an ACD role? I got offered 140k for a lateral move and am currently making 155k. Is my current salary high or is the offer low?

$140k is seriously low. Even for a Group Copy Supe. Find a better offer and stay where you are until you can.

Damn. Guess I’m getting lowballed at $140k for groupe art sup. It was a promotion from $120k as art supervisor. Recruiter called about a lateral position & it was capped at 140.

140k is lowball for an ACD? What city are you guys in?

Remote, $165k as a GCS.

I started as a GCS at $145k a few years ago. I felt it was a bit low, but it was way higher than my previous agency, who screwed me on increases two years running.

Sounds low if East Coast. There’s a separate bowl for salaries that might help.

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives?

Is this just how it is?

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

I’m an SE who works 2 AE’s, and from looking at the market am on the bottom end of the pay scale. The company I work for has many different products/services (80+), so they wanted SEs to take on a local “SME” role in a specific area, to support other members of the team.

This role has ramped up quite a bit recently, and people have been coming to me for help with their deals (overviews, demos, POCs) which is increasing my workload.

How would you approach asking for more money here? Thanks!
