Market rate for a U.S. job is best benchmarked against the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) database, which publishes national and state-level median wages for 800+ occupations.

The benchmark is a starting point for the compensation conversation, not an account for your specific experience, location, or benefits.
