Gender pay gaps and emerging technology roles highlight the 2024 Salary Guide for marketing, creative, and design professionals recently released by Aquent. Based on more than 21,000 salaries and paired with the work-solutions company's 2023 Talent Insights Report, it provides an opportunity for companies to examine how to build high-performing teams and fairly compensate them. 

"The workplace has been rapidly evolving — from where and how we work to the technology we use, and even the roles themselves. Aquent's 2024 Salary Guide gives us an important pulse check on the industry and helps us anticipate what's to come," John H. Chuang, the company's founder and CEO, said in a statement. 

In 2023, Aquent's salary data showed a shrinking gender wage gap within marketing, creative, and design fields, but this year's findings show that female workers earn 90% of what their male counterparts earn — a wage gap of 10%.
