Methodology

Data Collection. PayScale administers the largest real-time salary survey in the w orld w ith more than 200,000 new survey records added every month. The database of more than
54 million total salary profiles is updated nightly to reflect the most detailed, up-to-date compensation information available. Our data collection is strongly correlated w ith the size of
the pool being considered, representing the diversity of the general w orkforce.
People complete a salary profile on PayScale's w ebsite for many reasons, but mostly to prepare to ask for a raise, evaluate a job offer, or just to know how they stack up against
others in similar positions. Upon completing PayScale's salary survey, individuals receive a series of reports that show how their salary compares to other people w ith similar education,
skills and w ork experience. Individuals can also explore how changes such as moving to a different city, getting a promotion and going back to school can affect their future earning
potential.
Data Standardization & Matching. Accurate compensation reporting is highly dependent on the ability to normalize and classify titles, industries, locations and other compensable
factors into consistent groups. Know ing that "C++ Developer" is a kind of "Softw are Engineer" requires a deep understanding of the semantics of these terms as w ell as the core
tasks performed by employees w ith these titles. PayScale leverages proprietary internal taxonomies as w ell as proprietary mappings to third party data sources to assure accurate
mapping. The breadth and depth of the data assets used to standardize and match data is unparalleled in the industry.
PayScale applies a set of propriety algorithms to assure the consistency and accuracy of every data point used in our compensation models and reports. Our data team regularly
compares PayScale compensation data w ith external sources of data, both publically and privately available. This research has show n that our market data is strongly correlated w ith
other sources of compensation data, including employer submitted data. This research has also show n the breadth and depth of our data is w ider than other sources due to our
collection methods and softw are product, w here users are able to more precisely describe and price positions, including both the type and size of the organization, and the skills and
experience of the position.
Our softw are does not need to modify or blend profile data, use inflation or cost-of-living adjustments, or age data. This w ay, w e help our customers avoid the shortcomings of
traditional salary surveys that dilute the market data using "averages of averages" or "surveys of surveys" approaches.
MarketMatch TM. The MarketMatch algorithm uses a tw o-step process for producing compensation data in a PayScale report. The first step is to understand w hich of our more than
250 compensable factors are important w hen it comes to pricing a job and how that job's pay is affected by these compensable factors. This is done in order to define a pay
distribution for this job. The mix of compensable factors and their effect on pay is highly dependent upon the job. For example, coding languages and locations are important
compensable factors for a Softw are Developer, w hile average sales prices and annual sales are important for an Account Executive. The second step is to then find the recent
profiles that best match the described position in order to tighten the overall distribution from representing the job overall to the specific position described in the PayScale report.
