Design Directors at my company make 220K+ so 175-200 seems way too low for a GDD.

If you're in a HCOL area (which I assume you would be if you're at the top/big name agencies) then you could be looking at 175-200k. Obviously depends on experience and the agency itself but should definitely be over 150k if you're at a top agency

I do sales for a major engineering firm. Focused on new business and exploring new markets. Last year I was in the top 50% for order intake, and first in number of projects won along with number of new customers. I think this is extraordinary given the effort it takes to win new business.

For next year my goal increased by 2.5X, and less of what I bring in counts towards that target. I really enjoy my job but I will essentially be getting a large pay cut. Lost in what to do besides quit??
