Revainrating 4 out of 5

Overall good experience with PayScale and pretty helpful

I like that it is very easy to find out what you are worth at any given time. It's also a great tool for comparing your pay to others in your industry, which can give you an idea of where you stand relative to other people in your field. What I dislike is that sometimes the data isn't completely accurate. For example, even though the information says my hourly rate is $23/hr, when I look at my pay history, the actual number is around $22.50/hr. And some jobs aren't listed at all. So it might not be so useful if you're looking for certain types of jobs, or want to make sure you're getting paid fairly compared to your peers. Also, there's no way to know how accurate the data is unless you compare it to something else (i.e., another pay report you've done). This.
