The Annual Data Professional Salary Survey Closes This Week!
Take the Data Professional Salary Survey now. The survey has closed.
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.
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.

A couple points about the survey. One of the questions you asked about which db’s you worked with in 2022. Is this a typo? Also, I’m completely remote so the zip code and closest city was hard for me to answer. I’m currently near Dallas, my legal residence is near Houston but I can and do travel all over.
Love your content, it continues to make me look like a hero at work.
Thanks, glad you like it! I’ll fix the 2022. About the remote – many of us are remote these days, and that’s why the question is worded as “Use the zip code where you spend the majority of your work time.” If you don’t know what that is, you can feel free to skip it. Thanks!
