But “San Fran” is very wrong.
It’s SF or San Francisco only ever.

I was 140 as a senior in SF. You might be in the right range, but on the low side of it.

like

I have 5 years ex in nyc and getting 110, I’m pushing for 125 def go for more!

Your within the range. Senior creative usually starts at like 90 and can go all the way up to 150 if you have lots of experience or if your agency doesnt have the ACD level.

Most seniors in big markets are at like 100 to 125ish

Sounds right. I’m at an SF company (remotely) and that’s how much I’m getting

Yeah a little low but in the ballpark. I’m at 130 and due for a raise

Seems low, but not crazy low.

Depends what agency you’re at but I’ve heard of Seniors making 165-170ish in SF

Way too high. I was a former data consultant in the big 4 that worked with a lot of adcomm clients comp data and that is not an accurate figure. 1st year big law lawyers are just making a bit above that in SF.

Sounds pretty good

It would never hurt to negotiate

With 8 years you can go higher. 150 is the upper limit I’ve seen not counting supervets that are happy being “seniors”.

That’s where I’m at in NYC. So, probably close but a tad low considering SF is somehow even more fucked than us in terms of housing and COL.

I have 3 YOE as a Software Developer. I currently work as a React/Node developer making 87k per year (I know that is pretty low, my manager will admit it) He has made it clear that I am the most skilled developer on the team, and I am getting promoted to Senior Dev. I would like to know what I should be shooting to make? I really like my job and ideally don't want to move companies, but would like some realistic expectations for what I should be earning.
