When I was first promoted to VP I got a puny raise to 105, negotiated to 120 using a counteroffer a few months later, then left for an offer in the high 160s (and raises since). It does seem easy to get stuck at the bottom of this band with people expecting you to be satisfied with the title alone.
OP this is a great question! You should create a new bowl specifically for it. Then everyone could weigh in with the specifics: City (need it), Gender, Role (Creative, Account, Strategy, Media, etc...) Years of experience, VP (if) and any other helpful background (like the switching stories) Some of the posts above are really enlightening, it'd be awesome to have a big bowl to refer to. We need something like this! Glassdoor and any other salary guide is always waaaaay to broad. But we could create a much better one right here.

What is the VP band for Chicago, anyone? If 125-155+ is standard, it seems like the 100k lower end of the band that I've been told is an egregious lowball
