RE: SALARY OF AN ORACLE DBA IN THE US

Forget salary, take a pay cut and go to work for a dot.com start up with lots of worthless stock options. Work long hours in impossible conditions with impossible deadlines. After BS'ing the interviewers help the company BS the Vulture Capitalists then hope you win the IPO lottery so you can retire.

The salary depends on the area of the country you are in and the demand in that area. In the Atlanta GA area there is a demand for DBA's therefore the salary range would be 45k - 75k depending on experience and your ability to BS the interviewer into thinking you only get your ankles wet when you walk on water.

Hi

I am just enquiring about the average salary of an Oracle DBA in the US. I know that this is a broard topic and can vary from state to state, experience, qualifications, etc.

Someone with about 2 years Oracle DBA experience. 3 year degree. 4 years total IT experience.

I have been to a couple of websites like www.realrates.com .

I would just like to know from people that are working in the environment.

Any pointers

TIA
