You give your current position and salary and that gives you access to pay information that others have posted in the same way.

It’s really grown and now there is enough data to be of value. There are enough salaries posted in the major cities that you can get a good idea of what other people are making in your same position in your city! Here are a couple of graphs:

Median Salary by State or Province:

You can also narrow the results down on company size, city, experience, skills, and degree. So if you want to compare what small companies are paying for your position and compare that to what larger companies pay, you can do that very easily!

The one I liked the best is the Median Salary by Employer Type, so if you’re open to working for the Federal Government, etc, you might find it better for you.

PayScale.com also has a “Top Jobs” section which shows the jobs that it has the most amount of data on, so you can check these titles first to see if you fit into one becuase you’ll get a better idea since there’s more data.
