I've been a project manager in marketing for over 3 years and I'm earning £33k in London which I know is underpaid. I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on how to make the jump to a higher salary elsewhere? not necessarily in marketing and also if you could share salaries with similar experience in a similar field? I've been applying for a few months and have had several interviews now, but don't seem to be getting anywhere!

Thanks

Look at transitioning your marketing experience into PM in an AdTech company. If you can study an online course through LinkedIn within AdTech that would make a difference. The pays can be arounf 70k to 100k depending on the company. The other thing you can do is go sideways to a more notable company but ask for a salary of 65k but allow negotiation to 60k - this is where you might have to drop a white lie about your old salary and say 55k.

Fox Rothschild, litigation, Delaware, mid level

Considering a move from a larger BigLaw firm to Fox Rothschild, primarily to work on matters I’m more interested in, but hopefully to also have a slightly better work life balance. I know it would be a pay cut though, and their various covid cuts have me concerned as well.

Any insight from current or former associates? What is firm culture like? Is work life balance decent enough to justify a lower salary?

I left biglaw after 3 years to a mid-size firm. Took a pay cut but the hours, people, culture and work were so much better I never thought twice about the salary or “prestige.” Ultimately I started 2 very small firms. I am not rich by biglaw standards but I have a very comfortable life and put my kids through college with no debt. 35 years after leaving big law, people are still impressed when I say I started there. I feel like I still had the benefits of the connection w/o the suffering.
