They always say the first few years you’ll be underpaid and after you’ll be overpaid as a creative. I’ve been on the underpaid side for a while. For the CDs and seniors in here, many years / what level do you start to get overpaid? What does that number look like?

That’s incredible! Health care or regular creative? Congratulations 🎉

Don’t hold your breath, the standard CD salary (250K) hasn’t increased in the last 10 or 20 years, meanwhile the cost of living has gone way up. As have all the other boring things in life like interest rates and property prices. You never get overpaid for all the hours you burn doing this job. Do it because you love it, not to be rich.

Yes I know you guys put in the work for that through the years. Is there a number before creative director level that is a “breakthrough” number tht is pretty solid for junior-senior level?
