Figures are medians of advertised salary ranges from live job postings, normalised to an annual full-time basis. The 25th–75th percentile range is a Premium feature. Buckets need a minimum sample to appear (15+ postings). Advertised pay is not the same as take-home or offer, so treat it as a market signal, not a guarantee.
