What market?

Yes, this is in sync with market fluctuations.

Saw an exec producer posting for $110k and had a laugh. Canadian market so lower in general. But that was insulting. Curious who they're going to get for that. I can't even imagine a senior producer accepting that salary.

Maybe a senior producer in digital? Honestly though this market is Bollocks. Senior producers should demand $120-140k, EP's $140-160k. What is happening? Total greedy corporate bullshit.

If I had a hunch, younger folks wanting to advance in title before they're ready and are taking lower salaries as a result. I'm sorry but you're not really a senior producer until you've been doing this for 8+ years. EP is a title of leadership, departmental expertise. Things are a little funky right now across the board.

Would you stay living in a city you like but have very few friends there, or move back to your hometown where most of your friends and family are? My current city has a population of about 500k and my hometown is about 100k. My main reason to move away from my hometown was dating and jobs, but neither seem to be going any better over the past 2 years. COL is about 28% higher than my hometown and jobs don’t pay much better.
