Previously on Bleeding Cool, we reported that DC Comics was looking for a Group Editor, potentially as we saw it, to take over from Ben Abernathy and he jumped from the Batman books to Skybound, with fellow Group Editor Katie Kubert filling in until a replacement could be found. Well, it seems that this job has now been filled, as the listing is no longer live on the site. But could it have been an internal promotion? Because they have now added two new positions, for Editor and Associate Editor. The Editor job has a salary of $53,900 to $100,100 per year. While the Associate Editor has a salary of $38,511 to $71,521 per year. The latter of which may seem a tad on the low side. They are also hiring a Director, Talent Relations. from $83,090 to $154,310 a year… Larry Ganem is currently the VP of Editorial Programming and Talent Strategy which may have some overlap. But if you had the Associate Editor job at the lower end of that scale, that would work out at $18.26 an hour. And they are also advertising for a Custodian ay $18.55 per hour, What's a Custodian, you ask? Well, the role would be defined as one who "Cleans assigned area as outlined by management. Possibility of weekends and/or holiday shifts.., Trash pick-up, dusting, sweeping, vacuuming, mopping, cleaning ceiling vents, detail restroom cleaning (private office and public), floor waxing, window cleaning, etc. Physical exertion requires standing for long periods, walking, bending, lifting, and maneuvering heavy weights up to 50+ lbs. Driving carts between buildings to transport cleaning supplies." So, yes, cleaning DC Comics offices. for 29 cents an hour more than the lowest level of salary for an Associate Editor at DC. Or, also for $18.54 an hour, the job of "Utility" for the Food Services department, duties which "include opening and closing the cafeteria, cashier, bussing, barista service, stocking, food delivery, and servicing cast & crew." https://lnkd.in/ep2C3nuq #dccomics #comics #comicbooks
