I scraped salary data to work out how data scientists can earn more:<p>- DS salaries have been going up at 7-9% per year<p>- Those with a PhD earn an extra $45k than those with a Master’s<p>- DS in the West is paid $30k+ more than other regions; those in the Southeast are paid the lowest<p>- After FAANG, the highest salaries were for other Tech, O&G and Healthcare
Does anyone even know what a high performing data scientist looks like ? We know about the 10x dev meme and how highly paid they can be, but has data science defined it's niche enough to demand higher salaries ?
