The 2020s have been tough: a pandemic, a recession, layoffs, and inflation. Inflation makes things particularly tricky because your costs for everything have risen a lot in the last year, but at the same time… has your salary? What about your peers? You’re in a tough position because it’s hard to ask for more money when there are layoffs everywhere. I feel you.

So it’s time for our annual salary survey to find out what data professionals make. You fill out the data, we open source the whole thing, and you can analyze the data to spot trends and do a better job of negotiating your own salary:

Take the Data Professional Salary Survey now. The survey has closed.

The anonymous survey closes Sunday, Jan 1. The results are completely open source, and shared with the community for your analysis. (You can analyze ’em now mid-flight, but I’d wait until the final results come in. I’ll combine them into a single spreadsheet with the past results, and publish those on January 9th.)

Thanks for your help in giving everybody in the community a better chance to talk honestly with their managers about salary.
