These figures come from 597 brand marketing postings where the employer stated pay, covering 21 cities. The single best-evidenced figure is New York at entry-level, where 48 postings put the middle half between $73,000 and $145,000, with a median of $92,000.
Pay rises with seniority. Typical figures run entry-level around $91,000, mid-level around $116,000, senior around $151,000 and lead around $156,000. Moving from entry-level to lead is worth roughly 71% more.
Location moves the number too. Of the 7 cities with enough disclosures to rank, San Francisco pays most at around $168,000 and Seattle least at around $109,000, a gap of roughly 54%.
Every range here is counted from real postings, never modelled. 26 of the 48 US-dollar ranges rest on fewer than 10 postings, so treat those as a hint rather than a benchmark; the sample column tells you which.
