We are the authority for IT salary and contract rate equality. Our work is based on the research of the business/statistical division of the L. F. Nexus Think Tank and Dr. Michael J. Bisconti in particular. Dr. James R. Ziegler (see his excellent material at The Contract Employee's Handbook) has independently arrived at similar conclusions. However, we focus on matters of equality in the pay structures for permanent employees and contractors and we are the only organization that provides a complete statistical “equality table.” Here are the equivalent salaries and contract rates for salaries ranging from $80,000 to $100,000. We will be posting the complete “IT Salary & Contract Rate Equality Table (25k to 250k)” as soon as possible. The following table provides statistically determined values. Actual salaries and rates should deviate no more than ± 10%. However, there are exceptions; for example, senior professionals and DBAs should be paid at least 15% more than the table value and senior DBAs should be paid at least 30% more than the table value. In order to identify exceptions, you will need to apply the elaborated version of the “Sock Formula” (see simplified version below) to any table value. (A basic explanation of the Sock Formula may be found at Sock Formula.) f(x)y + f(x)z - y ________________________________________ Td Finally, new data and information is always emerging and, thus, the equality table will continually be improved, though any further improvement may be marginal (small).
