For a long time, sharing salary information has been a major t | Business Insider

For a long time, sharing salary information has been a major taboo in America, which makes it difficult to know how much you should be getting paid. The only public disclosures in America come from companies that hire immigrant workers using a slate of different visas.

To help prepare you for your next salary negotiation, Insider has created a searchable database of the last three years of salary disclosures, collected from the USCIS website, curated to a range of more than 250 companies that Insider reporters regularly cover.

The data is filterable by employer name, type of job, and job location, catching the differences between software engineers in Silicon Valley and Miami. Take a look here, and subscribe to @BusinessInsider on Telegram for more.
