Really depends on where you live (Big City, Small Town) and what benefits they offer (Medical, 401k, etc) may be OK, may be terrible.

Hourly rate is a confusing way to look at this but if you have 10 years of experience, I would expect at least double $50+. By all means, you save money taking the job, well then you’re coming out on top. Also global retail could mean anything, something like a fashion brand will pay very different than something like a branding agency.

Rough pay bands
(for most agencies/HCL cities like LA/NYC)

Junior 55-75k
Mid 85-95k
Senior 100-135k

Obviously some outliers here and there but this is what I’ve gathered from research over the years. Before benefits btw. YMMV.

I used to work at a fashion brand. Don’t get distracted by the shininess of global recognition. It all depends on the role itself and the access to projects you have. What is your next step in your career? What does that mean to you? We can discuss deeper if you want to DM.
