How to read this comparison

These figures describe reported H-1B base salary, not total compensation. Equity, bonuses, benefits, internal level, and most non-sponsored employees are not included. Job families use reviewed title and occupation matches, but public titles are not perfectly standardized. Annual change describes the median of available records, not an individual employee's raise or company headcount growth.
