Salary Q: New to Fishbowl + creative/ad agencies and would love any insights from y'all.

I recently got an offer for a producer role that I believe was too low b/c it involves working with devs, dev work myself, and has the combined responsibility of project management and production.

In search, "producer" yields much different results ($$ wise) from "project manager", and from "technical" + "producer/project manager"

Any advice on how I should proceed in navigating negotiations?

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
