Level of importance that each of these factors plays in promotion discussion: utilization, snapshots/work evaluations, internal contributions (recruiting, team bonding etc), overtime, travel, etc?

What is a snapshot? Only the most inaccurate, jaded, BS waste of time known to the human species

None of it really matters individually yet it all matters in concert. You're looking at it too formally and unfortunately the informal drives everything you mentioned which drives promotion. If you work hard, have a good attitude, and are good at what you do, people will want to work with you. This will get you scheduled more increasing your utilization and also enhancing your evaluations. The formal evaluations, however, matter much less than the informal chatter that occurs among leadership about you. If you're respected and liked, you will be fostered and protected by the leadership group. Team bonding will enhance this among your peers, which is vital in attaing 360 respect. With all of this, the firm will ask you to become more active in recruiting, training, etc. By now you should see the overtime concern is irrelevant because you will be working more than enough hours just to keep up with all this. Travel doesn't matter. Do all this locally or abroad it's about executing on the given task in the moment regardless of location.

What is a snapshot

Snapshot of performance over a certain amount of hours submitted to management and HR by your senior manager director and so on

Relationships (Who you figuratively fornicate with and the more the better), snapshots, utilization...

Whoever says “need”.... there’s always need @ Big 4, unless you’re in advisory... I don’t know what “overtime” means either. Lol

Utilization.

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?

The Way to a Higher Salary? Leave.

If I had stayed in the role I was in originally and grown with it, I’d be making maybe $120k, best case. I also wouldn’t have broken 6-figures in under 4 years by waiting.

The biggest lie that companies tell you is you can grow in a firm, both professionally and financially. The only ones that grow are already the people a) getting the promotions, or b) on the sales side.

If neither applies to you, the fastest way to achieve salary growth is to leave.
