Thank you. It made me a really jaded person at 23. And in spite of that, I felt like the shameful one for too long. Thank god I don’t work there anymore. It’s now my personal mission in a management role, to make sure the people I come into contact with in my personal and professional life are never ever made to feel that way.

Sadly EY1 both men, even then and certainly now, still had several years and pay bands on me. I’ll catch up and I’ll go further. I’m encouraged by the progress I see, the increased emphasis on inclusion, and the kindness I see from peers and junior staff. Makes me want to be a part of the leadership team that helps make things better. Plus it feels like a little “fuck you” and I won’t lie that’s a motivator too.

I’m currently in the process of being converted from contractor to permanent. In my initial conversations I was under the impression that I was in a different pay grade and asked for a salary 25k higher than the max allotted for my position. I feel like it gave the impression that I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestion how I can recover from this?

Hello all, for those working in an agency. I wanted to see what your typical client workload is? I’ve been in my role for about a year but the workload has changed dramatically without hiring help.

Can you please share:

- how many support staff you have on those accounts
- how many active pitches you send per month for those clients on average

Thanks all!
