Last job, mid-level designers on my team were making ~45k, and seniors were making ~65k.My current job, designers make ~55-60k to start. I would probably hire a senior designer at 70-80k.

sounds about right, London pay for designers is a fucking joke.
- No, it sounds very low. If you accept this next year the wage will be even lower.qTime
- I'm not saying you should accept it, I'm saying its the going rate at the minute.animatedgif
- Not according to recent salary surveys. But yeah I've noticed more agencies asking for lower rates.qTime

The irony is, if you work somewhere awesome you get paid next to nothing. Switch over to a fat, in-house corporate gig where you're bored to tears, and you can soon make six figures in SF Bay Area.

$46,632.00 US Dollars is low, but not insane if you like the work they do and the environment.
You can buy food and pay rent at a apt for that wage.
