What’s the average pay for Client Service Directors

Hi Fishes,
Joined @ Nov, 2021 in Operations at CL 12.2
My total experience is 6yrs (8mon in Accenture)
My current CTC is very low, 4.77lpa. Got 10% for September cycle.
1) when is the annual appraisal cycle, when we will get the hike letter? Approx hike %
2) will we get additional hike for sub-level change from 12.2 -> 12.1?

I cleared technical round and during final call with HR, my salary expectations were higher as per HR.

My current CTC is 9lpa, skill-IAM and Java, YOE-3. I asked for 14lpa, best they could give was 11lpa. I know I asked a lot.

She didn't care to negotiate and cut my call and now they put my candidature on hold. Can I expect call back? Or i can consider myself rejected?

Hi

I’m struggling at the moment to gauge how much I should be getting paid in my position as i feel I’m heavily underpaid for the work I do, which includes managing digital marketing operations across 12+ countries, manage the studio/creatives plus lead on any campaigns and strategies, etc. I’m also remote UK-based although my company is international. So what do you feel a fair UK wage would be for the role? I love my job/team but the stress isn’t worth it for me atm. Thanks in advance!

What would you consider the “it” company of today in tech from an employee perspective (in terms of culture, growth, pay, etc) and what companies should be avoided?

**Can I take retirement?**

International tax senior associate- Deloitte

I have an interview with Deloitte next week for senior associate Internacional tax in California. How much salary I should expect? I am sure this question will come up and I don't want to underbelly myself. Currently I am a senior at other Big4.

The last guy I was with is back with his ex girlfriend. I know he’s been unfaithful to her for years. Ways to tell her? Or just let karma get him eventually? I’d just want to know if I were her.

May as well spend more time beating the meat while stuck at home. Any paid/premium porn site recommendations (no links).

For those who switched from audit to advisory: what are some of your job responsibilities? What kind of advisory service are you in? Did you like the change from audit? What are the disadvantages?

So we waited all that time to learn that Madison and Peter are just going to give it a shot against the wishes of Peters awful Mom?

What are your thoughts about putting an explanation for the current gap (as in, I haven’t been working for several months) on your resume, LinkedIn profile or cover letter? If you think it should be included in one of these places, how would you do it?

Got a job offer with a lower base salary but a guaranteed bonus structure that puts me ahead of my current pay at the end of each year. Has anyone moved to a position with a compensation structure like this? Was it hard to adjust when it came to your monthly finances?

Has anyone been successful negotiating a “breach notification costs” provision in contracts with vendors? What are some good args to include it? I feel like vendors generally flat out say “no”, but I have seen some contracts where vendors were willing to include it and I’m wondering how that happened 😁

Recently started with a new company. What do I do with my HSA account from my previous employer? The brokerage used for the HsA is a prohibited entity at the new company, and my personal brokerage doesn’t support HSA accounts.

Because of this sub, every time I see a dog now, I subconsciously think the owner is going to ask me for a referral.

Hi Fishes,
How many days Persistent takes to share interview feedback?

My Accenture recruiter told me that in order to revise my current offer she would need to reject my current offer first and no need to worry on that part. Is this normal? Please provide genuine feedback.

Hello! I’m new on this bowl 👋

I work at M1, a fintech startup in Chicago. I’m hiring copywriters for my team, anyone here interested or know someone who may be? I’ve already put out a couple offers that got rejected because of a competing agency offer, so looking for people who are interested in the tech/startup space!

Hi Fishes,

I had worked as a manual test engineer in Wipro, can anyone refer me.

Looking for senior designers that knows shopper marketing. Please DM with books!

When is it OK to ask for a partner swap? I've been working with a super fun Jr. AD for four months, but I feel like I'm pulling most of the weight + that we aren't bringing out the best in each other.

New place I’m at is complete anarchy. Only here for a month. One of the account managers is working 14 hour days and is a bout to crack ... so I mention it to my “manager” or na

Did anyone else watch Netflix's Chasing Coral and now they're considering leaving advertising to do some good in the world? Just me?

O&M Creative: more shuffling still to come? And by shuffling, I mean layoffs too.

Which do you prefer?

“Give me a deadline and I’ll get the work done”
or

“when I get this done I’ll let you know and we can figure out when the client will see it.”

Does anyone feel weird in the DEI space for all the identity politics of representation (which I understand progress is progress!) but it’s still within the system of capitalism because this is still... advertising? - coming from a BIPOC

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 .

Has anyone received a job offer after being initially ghosted by recruiter? How long did you not hear from them? Feeling down after not hearing anything for 2 weeks after a round of seemingly promising interviews.

Curious, what is a typical severance package—ie, how many weeks of pay per year?

I just got called about a job on Thursday, showing interest. They’re already back in the office so the job would require me to be. Said they’re classified as an essential business because most of their advertising is for healthcare. Is this a hard red flag? Really Seems like it.

Hey Fishes. An early career question, Kindly take two minutes in your busy schedule to help me here? TIA!

I have been freelancing (right after graduation) for over 2 years now as a paid media strategist/ a performance marketer. In the upcoming months I wish to join an agency to get corporate exposure.

How do you determine an agency that's right fit for you. I was thinking about giving a shot at GroupM. What are your views about the agency?

Any better agencies that also accept remote roles?

Have any ADs or CWs made the switch to film directing or cinematography? What's your story? How did you do it?

No one—of any age, on any occasion—ever—says “It’s easy as 1 2 3!” And yet every now and then, even now, you see it as a line (junk mail mostly). Did anyone EVER say it, outside of advertising?

Client removes all copy in ads re: product description or product benefits due to pending legal review. Removes visuals of product doing its job. Blames agency that ads aren’t driving traffic/sales

I got recruited for a analytical role with Ford, it’s a contract to hire position with great benefits, double my salary currently and close to home. The contract is for 6 months then can be hired in full time. Should I take the position or no? What do I have to lose?

Still really want to know how that Strategist's conversation with the boss went today.

Why do people in this industry say "like" so much? It makes it annoying to, like, walk around the building and listen
