Stop guessing what talent costs. Start knowing

The result is a dataset that tells you not just what jobs pay today, but how compensation has moved over nearly a decade.

The full picture, not just one number

Most salary tools give you a median and call it a day. The US HR dashboard surfaces three key compensation benchmarks for every role: the 10th percentile, the median, and the 90th percentile. That means your team can see the entry-level floor, the typical market rate, and the ceiling that top performers command — and position your offers accordingly.

The numbers tell a compelling story on their own. Median salaries across the US have climbed 27% since 2017, from $47,060 to $59,750 in 2025. The geographic spread is equally striking: a worker in the District of Columbia earns a median salary of $77,500 — $27,400 more than a comparable worker in Arkansas. At the role level, the range is even wider, from $29,700 for entry-level service workers to $541,700 for Pediatric Surgeons. Utilities is the highest-paying sector at an $87,750 median, while Retail and Wholesale have posted some of the fastest wage growth over the period — facts that matter when you’re advising clients on sector-specific talent strategy.

Designed for decisions, not just browsing

The dashboard is built to work the way compensation teams actually think. Filter by location, industry, and job title in seconds. Compare salary ranges across states and markets side by side. Track how a specific role’s pay has trended year over year.

Whether you’re setting a new hire’s starting salary, preparing for a compensation review cycle, or advising a client on market positioning, the US HR dashboard puts the answer in front of you — not buried in a spreadsheet or locked behind a consultant’s retainer.
