I wonder though. How good is indeed's data?
I ran a query for "PHP developer" and got an average salary of $72k - check the standard deviation of about $7k. Is my salary really almost two standard deviations below the mean for Toronto?
That's embarrassing more than anything else. I find myself wishing I had a post anonymously option on HackerNews.

- jarin 16y agoIt's a good reason to start looking around, even if only to get an offer you can use to get a raise. It's not about being greedy, most companies will pay you the minimum amount you'll work for, or close to it. If your salary is that far below the mean, there's probably still a good chunk of money on the table (if your company isn't broke or doesn't just have a policy of underpaying).
