I’d call that the low end for a director salary in NYC, at least agency side.

Lol the head of copy brand side. All my online research looks really low

As in I make more in a small town in Florida where we don’t have state tax and cost of living is way less, so figured the sites must be wrong

Probably like a few hundred bucks a week back in the 1960s

? I don’t get the joke

RANT: People re-writing a cw’s stuff has always been painful. These days it’s far more common than when I started. It’d be one thing if they upgraded the work. If I learned from it. If I genuinely seethed with envy over their wit w/that perfectly placed semi-colon. People can’t re-art direct stuff bc they don’t know the programs so they ask the ADs for changes. Word and a keyboard made everyone think they can write. Which they can’t. Google Slides is Google slip ‘n slide into (bad ref. here.)
