Where do ya’ll go to collect market rate for a role you’re applying for? Glassdoor is highly inconsistent for the title in question (e.g., $100k - $350k range). Is there another way to determine the market rate for a InfoSec Director role?

Need to know location, industry, YOE, etc. Otherwise you're about to get a lot of "100k-350k" responses here too.... you only get specificity by giving specificity. Base it on one factor (title only), you'll get a range that isn't useful.

like

YOE = 10 years
Location = Los Angeles
Industry = Entertainment / video streaming
Focus = Infrastructure Security is one role and Product Security is another role
Current TC = ~$180k

I’m aiming for $210/$220k for the Infrastructure Security Director role and maybe $240/$250k for the Product Security Director. There’s no stock, just pure base plus bonus (maybe)

Does that seem in line? Also, what’s the delta between Director and Senior Director? $20k? 30k?

Glassdoor, managementconsulted, Charles Aris annual survey, Levels.fyi, FishBowl, Reddit, ask real humans, etc

Titles are inflated in many places, if you want a more precise estimation you need the exact position.

Levels.fyi is a great resource for software engineering, product management, etc. how do I translate that to director level jobs in infosec? 250k+ may be reasonable for Bay Area but for LA, is that still reasonable?
