Questions about this pay market.

What are Data Scientist salaries in Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services?

The available evidence includes 85 supported public pay cohorts across 85 employers. The tables show individual employer benchmarks and their measurement definitions. We do not average employer medians into a single industry salary.

Does this page show base salary or total compensation?

Base-pay coverage is available. Government wage filings describe offered base pay. Missing stock, bonus and benefits are not inferred from those wages.

Can Data Scientist work in other industries?

A career and an employer sector answer different questions. This page uses the assigned employer industry; the broader Data Scientist career page includes supported employers in other sectors. Filings may cover only part of an employer’s workforce.

How can a hiring team use these benchmarks?

Choose comparable responsibilities, location, seniority and pay definitions before designing a range. Check the evidence period and sample support. Request a coverage review for the roles and markets you actually hire in; these cohorts do not represent every employee in the industry.
