President…$115 for a GAD?! That’s robbery. $135-160k seems more reasonable.

I’m an AD making $120k so I’d hope GADs are looking at 130+

FCB! But I came in as an already experienced AD so probably at the top of the band

115 - 150 depending on agency size

Agreed - $115k for a GAD feels low. I’d recon $125k at the lower end of the band. But would I be surprised if some agencies out there were grossly underpaying? Not at all. 😂

Is our industry as competitive as some say? I see a lot of people saying this and I work with a bunch of hacks (myself included). It felt like a little while ago agencies were begging to hire new talent, and most couldn’t find new people. Is it really that hard to get a job at an agency? Maybe I’m just out of touch being in this career for so long.
