It depends on the agency. If you’re interviewing you should ask. Sometimes there’s a dif in vacation time or other perks. I was somewhere once where vps got parking. Something like that

You get to help more people find success, teach agency classes, meet more network leaders, learn more. But just to keep it real. Titles shouldn’t be taken too seriously.

A good mentor said to me “ The best VP/President who knows that they have no power and their role is to drive consensus among those they work with.”

Hope that helps.

More vacation. Higher expense-approval limit. I have an office instead of a cube. But I’m the first office in so I also sign for packages when the office manager is out.

Friday’s off?

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
