Whats the salary you should be asking for an AE position with 2.5 years of related experience? I am currently being paid 50k and so are 3 other new hires. Other AEs on the team who were hired back in 2020 or 2021 are getting paid 60k/65k with same level of experience, which is completely unfair. I am trying to pitch my manager salary increase during my upcoming check in and would appreciate any suggestions!

65-70 is range for AE in nyc agencies

What city? 65k is about right for an AE assuming your company has SAE and AS titles. 50k is definitely low.

like

Oh god, in that case, assuming your numbers are in CAD, that’s pretty horrible. I was making more than that as an AAE in Chicago. I’d say if you can get in the neighborhood of $90k CAD/$70k USD, you’d be at industry average.

like

Also…. I make 75k as an AE in NY/Boston. So depending on cost Of living in your city they should be more open for a change

like

Agreed. Other factors aside, I think $65 is a solid target.

$50k for an AE with 2.5 years is way low, doubly so if you’re in NYC or LA.

Go on Glassdoor/Payscale or similar and get comps to show as evidence that you’re underpaid.

like

depending on your performance and the work streams that you manage without much supervision I would shoot higher. Just tell them all you’ve done and what you plan on doing for the company and how your role and responsibilities have expanded over your time there. You should be paid to accommodate that.

like

In Chicago, I made $55k as an AE with 6 months of experience. A year later I was promoted to an AS (our agency didn’t have SAEs) and made $80k with 1.5 years experience total.

like

Location matters, so let’s get that out of the way.

That said, 50k is pretty entry level, so if you have peers who are making more, look more at their performance vs. tenure. Companies are moving away from tenure-based compensation so if you’re gonna make a case for an increase, point to performance and achievements, not how long you’ve been at the same pay level.

Get the AE Job Description and point to examples of how you’ve met or exceeded the expectations or responsibilities.

A Camry and a Ferrari are different prices for a reason. 🤷‍♂️

So I recently interviewed for an associate PM role with my current company. I’ve been a store manager with them for 11 years. During the interviews, I felt like things were growing great and the feedback I got at the end was great. You’d think given my time knowing the product/ company for so long, that I’d be a great fit but I got rejected and haven’t gotten feedback probably will get ghosted. Should I shoot my shot and advocate for myself with the hiring manager either way?

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
