Great implementation. I've seen the raw data before but never had the web development skills to execute on this idea. Can you also add a query where once you select a company and year, it groups by title and gives average salary.
For a company and a given year, you can search by title.

Nevermind, there's one making $1.5M. I just stopped looking too early.
I understand that highly compensated engineers get to solve unique challenges on grand scale, enjoy their jobs and are generally content with their professional positions.

They don't need venture backing, they don't have pre…
