Hey all, this is regarding Audible.

Thanks

Anyone from Canada? I’m considering moving but I don’t know what the salaries are like.

How do you calculate your years of experience? Curious-if I include roles outside of my current dept I have 8. If only counting production, 3. How does that impact your salary negotiations?

How much can I ask for with 4+ years experience at strong nyc agencies?

Hoping for a bump at next review. Should I mention it now? Will either kick epic ass or fail massively in the next few months.

Do you count internships towards your years of experience? I did 20 months all together interning but not sure if that moves my needle from mid to senior when job hunting.

Before taking resignation they were saying will get letter in 2 days max, now Delay in offer letter even after more than month from the day I took my resignation back.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
