hey all! i just need some career advice. started my ad ops career 3 years ago when i got hired as a junior as ops specialist/analyst at one of the top five marketing agencies. been here for 3 years with excellent work ethic and dedication. i honestly love ad ops but the pay is horrible,50k. my only career projection as of right now is just waiting for my boss to get promoted so i can take over his role. i took some programmatic specialist training but the pay is almost the same with triple the work load. i am proactive and i try to automate some QA stuff and be the main poc for troubleshooting but i don't think management is valuing my efforts. i thought about applying for other jobs but alot of the good one are very specific like they need database or coding skills with experience. i'm just so lost...
