RE: Jr.DBA, Mid level DBA, Sr.DBA

I would rather make the definition be about Experience and abilities other than Salary (Although Management does not exactly understand that ) .

Look at it this way ....
Just because someone is getting paid the most, does not mean they know the most. Also, just because someone has been around the most, does not mean the know the most.

I would not expect a Jr. DBA to work on their own. They need to be guided in the right way to do things.
After the Jr. progresses to the point where they can work on their own .... but still need the help of someone else in learning new items ....I would call them a Mid Level.
To me , a Sr. DBA is one how needs no guidance .. knows where to find all the information themselves, is self-sufficient in their work.

If you look at this definition , there are not that many Srs. about. Many of the folks who are designated Sr., are more like high mid Levels.

As always ... just my opinion.
