What websites are y'all using to get a ballpark idea of what your salary should be? Which ones suck and I should avoid?

VisaDoor.com is the best resource nobody knows about. Whenever someone gets a visa the company has to publically post their title, start date, and exact salary. This means you can search by agency and see exactly where a large swath of employees stand. (Its not hard to figure out who is who.)

You could make an argument it's invasive, but I think it's an incredible resource in terms of knowing where you stand. And that's coming from a former immigrant who had his own salary posted.

First, this site actually has way more visa salaries posted so do this one instead of visa door: h1bdata.info

Re: prevailing wage - prevailing wage is basically what the government believes is the standard wage for a certain job in a certain area. The idea with visas is that if you're hiring someone from outside the country you need to pay them at least what you told normally pay an American. (the prevailing wage.)

There’s a link to the spreadsheet that has 5k+ entries. We’re working on making it a searchable tool but for now that should answer your question. Hopefully that’s helpful to you!

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less. Well I guess you should never settle. New gen is giving a hard time to the experienced folks. I think this is the high time to upgrade your skills. Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.
