This is how agencies incentivize people to jump ship to be paid market.
To be fair, jumping has its own risks so perhaps those “new” should get a premium over those not willing to take the risk of jumping.
Was senior manager and made 90k. Took a pay cut but it wasn’t worth it.
Sorry to hear. DDB NY or Chicago if you don’t mind me asking.
I wonder what cost of living arguments are used.
You just need to find a role elsewhere. Even if you go to management saying you know you’re underpaid compared to your counterparts, that likely will not do anything. Go get an offer somewhere else, and either accept it and leave, or bring them the offer for a counter. Either way, be prepared to take the offer and leave.
Offers are negotiated during hire and it’s an algorithm that the hiring manager does not have much control over.
