Depends on the client. I’m making double what I was making in the agency world.

As with anything in our industry, there are three key factors: 1) location 2) level you are at 3) the importance of advertising/marketing at that company. Usually the lower you are, the more money you will make going client side. However, from CD level on up you will usually be taking a pay cut unless you are the top creative ie CCO.

Ha, I’ve talked to two client side recruiters and the salary has been waaay lower than agencies. Depends on the industry I guess

Asked for a raise and was told to wait for the annual raise period even though I was doing extra stuff on top of doing my job at a very high level and they would not budge at all. I started looking around 2 months ago and I just signed an offer for a new position with a raise just above 50% of my current salary. Know your worth and go get it!!!

After 3 years of dealing with the worst firm I've ever had the displeasure of working for, I finally landed my dream gig at a small specialty firm. The people at the new firm are all SMEs featured in and contributors to the most notable business publications in the world, less than 100 employees, better benefits, unlimimted PTO, doubled my pay and landed a senior role.

Keep looking for what you want and deserve. I'm happy to be forging a better path away from what I've had to endure.
