URBN brands paid $19.24 hourly entry level as entry level Buying Assistant ($40k annual +overtime) and $50k after first promotion in 1 year. Long hours.. in person in Philadelphia, high cost of living but no NYC
I can vouch for my experience from 2017-2020 at Fullbeauty Brands in NYC. As a Merch Assistant, I made $18/hr (~$38k/year), as an Assistant Merchant I made 48-58 (I only got bumped to 58.5 when New York raised the min. overtime exempt salary to 58k for larger companies). And when I was promoted to Associate Merchant, I asked for 75 because I would be essentially doing the work of a merchant, but was given 68.5. IMO, 65 is the bare minimum that should be offered for an Assistant Merchant, but keep in mind that most companies' salary expectation is 55-70.
In the UK I’m on £22k a year x
We have to pay healthcare out of our pockets here so 22k isn’t that bad in comparison.
Currently at $55k a year
