• Varonis

  Some research on glassdoor and payscale.com tell me that the pay for entry-level tech support will be around 23k. Sorry I can't be any more help than that. Source: about 3 years ago

• Cloud Computing or Cyber

  You will likely get a better sense for what the wages look like at someplace like payscale.com, or perhaps glassdoor.com. Last time I checked a year or so ago, cloud computing engineers made 10-15% more than cybersecurity specialists, but it definitely depends on areas of specialization. No clue about the saturation of the market for cybersecurity, except the anecdotal evidence that a friend of mine who is a... Source: about 3 years ago

  Your wife needs to apply for other jobs and go on a site like payscale.com to get a good sense of what she should realistically ask for based on her experience, certifications, and where you're both living. Or heck, just look at sites like indeed.com where there's a higher rate of job postings that have salary information. Source: over 3 years ago

• How to get a better DEV job as a developing country developer

  One place to start is with online salary calculators such as Glassdoor and Payscale. These tools allow you to input your job title, location, and other relevant information to get an estimate of the average salary for that role in a specific area. It's important to note that these estimates are based on self-reported data, so the accuracy may vary, but it gives you a good idea to work if. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

• Job Offer = Senioritis in College

  I won't give you my specific offer but I will say that it was fair according to payscale.com. For example, 60k can get you a lot more in a rural area than a major city. Source: over 3 years ago

• I don’t want to support Loblaws or any of these other major price gouging grocery stores, so where should we shop?

  Not the best paying job in the world, but it's a far cry better than most of the other businesses in the retail sector. A quick look at payscale.com seems to show the average hourly wage for front line workers at Loblaws is about $18-20. Source: over 3 years ago

• Hourly pay to Big Mac Ratio

  In the UK the minimum wage at McDonalds is the national minimum wage £10.42/hr and the cost of a Big Mac is £3.19. So someone on that wage could buy 3.27 Big Mac burgers by working one hour. In the US the current minimum according to payscale.com is $8.47, but I will go with the average they report of $11.19/hr and the cost of a Big Mac is $5.81. So someone on that wage could buy 1.93 Big Mac burgers by working... Source: over 3 years ago

• Promoted to IT Team Lead: How much is appropriate for a pay increase?

  I put together a one pager and countered back with a new salary. My one pager included my performance eval scores and achievements, median salary and range data from payscale.com and salary.com, and 3 similar roles in my area. I aimed high (but still reasonable) using my one pager to justify my number. Source: over 3 years ago

• Why would anyone be a personal trainer, rather than a gym instructor?

  Houses sell for a really wide range of prices depending on location, but according to payscale.com, the median home price is #385,000. So I guess that would be a yes. Source: over 3 years ago

• What's going on with the rail strike? Corporate media isn't saying anything and search engines just keep directing to old articles about congress averting the rail strike (which is total bs).

  Australia. 34.39 AUD vs 20.85 USD hourly, based on payscale.com averages. 21 USD is about 31.14 AUD atm according to google. 115k AUD a year, vs 78k a year is basically 115k AUD so workers are working more hours, you get shit all time off and 1 day off that you had to fight for that isnt even a proper sick day.

• Biden signs bill averting rail worker strike despite lack of paid sick days

  According to payscale.com, a couple major unionized railroads have an average pay of about $95,000/year. That's $1827/week. And I believe 2 weeks paid sick leave was requested, so that's $3,654. Source: over 3 years ago

• Salary Negotiation Help Pls

  I basically put together a one pager. Nothing fancy. First section documented performance eval scores and achievements. Second section documented median salary and range data from payscale.com and salary.com. Last section I documented 3 similar roles and linked the job postings. Source: over 3 years ago

• Got a 90k IAM job offer.

  Depending on where you are coming from and your circumstances, it's probably okay. You should use salary.com and payscale.com to do some salary research to see if this offer is ballpark reasonable for Atlanta, for your experience and education. Source: over 3 years ago

• Indians in Auchan ?

  - For the internship, 50k is OK I guess. Salary comparison is a difficult topic, you can find different statistics, and forums like this full of people stating completely opposed things. Depending on your company, tech stack, social background, etc., you can be surrounded by people who "all make more than X" or "all make less than X/2", and you can be convinced that your experience is universal for the entire...

• Unlearning Economics explains the pay gap

  I have previously worked for a few companies that don't believe in negotiating pay, and instead base it on a system that they claim is fair, such as using payscale.com for a benchmark. I would always react to that by simply interviewing with other employers until I found something that did pay more, then handing in my resignation along with a snide remark about how their system might not be as accurate as they...

• Just got my first job offer as a self-taught developer - should I negotiate the salary?

  I wouldn't as long as it's roughly in the market range for your area and for the position (payscale.com might help though I don't know if it covers Canada). It's your first industry job and the economy feels iffy. Source: almost 4 years ago
