What’s the average salary for an AD in NYC with slightly less than 2 years of experience as a junior? And yes I’ve seen that massive spreadsheet but while it does say years of experience, it doesn’t say if that salary came along with the title bump or additionally as a raise after.

Having less than 2 years makes you a Junior Art Director. The estimated salary for a Junior is between 40K and 60K. It really depends on the agency and on how good/talented you are.

Take what ACD said with a grain of salt. I know some creatives who got promotedto mid level after a year.

I started at 55k as an AD, never had a junior title for some reason. Got a bump to 70 (got another offer but stayed), then 80 when I left for another agency after 2-3 years total. It all depends where you are now and what kind of shop you’re at.

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
