Was hired at the bottom of my AE salary band (55K) due to my lack of client services experience. The in-house recruiter told me I have room to grow within the band, but now that I’m here, my coworkers are telling me raises are typically tied to title change. I want to ask for a raise because why not (and Seattle’s COL has not been kind to us). Should I ask at the 90 day mark or 6 month mark?

Find out when the merit review process is at your company. Agencies have set budgets and it’s highly unlikely that you’ll get a raise outside of that process. When asking for a raise, focus on the value you are bringing and results you are driving. Asking for a raise 90 days in because COL is high is not going to get you very far

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
