WPP sub-agency is not giving me the
promotion salary I am asking for
despite running the entire department
for more than 2 years. The salary I am
asking for is what an external hire
would get, they are saying percentage
wise they can't do that "in the system
and also need to wait for annual
raises. Yet I've never once had an
annual raise at WPP w/o title change.
Anyone have any luck with this? I also
found out I am paid 15% less than my
male counterpart w/ same title, exp,
and less work.

They’re banking on you not making much of a fuss, and it’s honestly not worth your time at a place like that. Sharpen up the res while you’re still getting a paycheck and bounce as soon as you can.

Leave. They clearly don't see your value. If you're under market value here and they won't bring you up to it, you can find that elsewhere.

Last ditch effort if you're keen on staying - drop a reminder of the value of your experience and understanding of how your agency works and the time/salary cost it would require to train someone up to where you are at.

Mention if you don't get what you're asking for, you will be forced to leave and go freelance. This has actually worked for me once. Got me a $13K raise right before Christmas. Was planning on putting my notice in the new year. It helped that my EP threatened to leave if I left.

Best Advice: Do good work. Invest in meaningful relationships with your creatives, juniors, and line managers. Your social equity is worth something. Know its value & don't be afraid to use it.
