Top 3%. Anytime I see things like this or average savings per age, I’m frankly stunned at how screwed the majority of the US seems to be financially more so than I am focused on where I sit. I know I’m fortunate and make a really good salary.

98th, higher than I thought

Having some knowledge of compensation from previously working in HR, salary ranges are specific to industries and geography. This tool is very cool and has a strong geographic component. However it’s potentially misleading as there is no way certain types of industries can compete e.g., public sector.

For example, when I worked in the federal judiciary for 6 years, it was clear that people chose government service because of their ideals. (Of course often judges had been Partners at their firms prior and were set financially.)

It’s good to be aware of overall salary trends like this, but also that COLA has a real fiscal impact and doing what you love should not be underestimated.

I'll go first - my current year comp is just under the top 1% threshold for 2022 and I'm wondering if I'll be able to squeak in there this year/sometime soon or if inflation and other factors are going to keep me boxed out for good

98th %ile

It's official, I'm poor AF.

-5 percentile 🤣🤣🤣🤣

98

It is dated 2021 feeling good to be top 3% but not sure it is current though!

I'm sure it's close enough

97 percentile.. that is surprising

81st percentile

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
