In Australia, 3 years exp 150k in house; agency 80k (big four) - $130k (publicis)

$150K seems very high. Would that already be on a Design Manager level?

In Atlanta for me,
in agency as a Creative Director : 132,000 p/y
in house as Design Lead: 190,000 p/y

Wanted to highlight Prudential Financial’s hiring practices. They rescinded my offer once I attempted to negotiate the salary. The official reason given was that I didn’t “sound excited enough”.
They then admittedly gave the offer to someone who was less qualified. There were other red flags throughout the job offer process that the HR team should overall be ashamed of.

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

What % haircut should be expected? As an example, if I make 100k (base + commission) today, would it be realistic to ask for 90k (10% cut) + equity to make up the difference?
