Technology pays - sometimes.
Where you live matters. Our results showed that people living on either coast earned more that those working in the country's midsection. Also, regardless of your location or your job title, working for a large company doesn't guarantee higher salaries. You think you're underappreciated. Only 10 percent of our respondents thought they were well-paid for their responsibilities, and 42 percent felt their salary was low for the kind of work they do.
