Hrmmm, no results for CEO salaries.
Tools like this are super useful but can be misleading. They don't accurately report benefits, equity packages, and other value implicit or explicitly given by the employer.
This is genius lead gen for their recruiting business. 😊

@rrhoover thanks for the feedback. We're just getting started and due to member privacy considerations, we need at least 5 submissions to show data for a role. Hope to have enough CEO salaries soon. :)
We include both base salary and additional compensation like stock, bonus, etc., and we're working on adding other features like benefits. The product was created to increase salary transparency and help members make better career decisions, and wasn't built for recruiting.

@rrhoover I was thinking the same thing. I'm in Northeastern Pennsylvania, and I have to widen my search to the Greater NYC (definitely *not* the same market) area due to lack of available data. Sharing my salary might help, but that might mean *more* emails from LinkedIn haha

@rrhoover Also, sample size is often incredibly small. 25 salaries is not enough to make any true conclusions.

@sandlerryan salaries differ based on the stage of the company, pre rev/startup vs small biz, corp, etc. Anything on the roadmap to accommodate for this and break out these categories?

@sandlerryan @rrhoover I believe you won't have a problem finding CEO salaries when the Pay Ratio Disclosure takes effect on 1st January 17.

@warrenalfred definitely. Currently you can see breakout by company size when we have enough data, and are integrating these attributes further to provide more granular estimates.

@rrhoover I wouldn't say genius. All modern job boards have been doing that for years, they're playing catch up :) See the french startup Breaz for instance https://techtalent.io/en (acquired by Hired)

@wilhempujar you're right. "Genius" might be an overstatement, but still smart. 😊

@sandlerryan @rrhoover +1 to Ryan's points. Also, no "Data Scientist" salaries either. It looks like you probably have some title standardization issues even beyond sample size limits. Might be better to incorporate skills, and other data to see salary for iOS vs Android etc.
