How many open roles publish a pay range, counted where a range can exist

The denominator is every open role this feed reads on a hiring system whose API can carry a pay range. 54,308 roles across 916 companies this edition. Nothing is estimated and nothing is modelled: a role counts as publishing when its own board returned a range we could parse.

Roles publishing a USD range per year, over the roles that could

24.0%

13,059 of 54,308 open roles. Taken over the whole feed instead, the same numerator reads 12.0%, because most roles here sit on hiring systems that return no pay field at all. That lower number is a fact about those APIs, not about employers, which is why this page leads with the one above it.

Median midpoint

$192,500

Midpoint of each published range, USD per year. 1,365 hourly roles are counted separately and left out of it.

Companies publishing

44.8%

410 of 916 companies published a range on at least one open role. Counted one company, one vote.

Any parsed range

29.1%

15,792 roles published a range in any currency or period. The headline above is the comparable subset: dollars, per year.

A median is left blank below 5 roles publishing a USD range per year. These systems are not a sample of the market; they are the systems whose APIs return a pay field, which is a different thing and the reason this page exists.

Source ledger

Across the whole feed, 13,059 of 108,586 open roles publish a pay range in dollars per year. On the hiring systems that can carry one, it is 13,059 of 54,308. The other systems return no pay field at all, so a role there is unmeasured, not silent.

Method / what this does not claim

Eligibility is a property of the software. A hiring system is in this count when its API can return a compensation field at all. SmartRecruiters cannot, so a role posted there is unmeasured, not silent, and it is left out of the denominator rather than counted as a company staying quiet.
One company, one vote. Company breadth is counted per company. A company with two thousand open roles moves that figure exactly as far as a company with five.
The file floor is 5 open roles. A company needs 5 open roles before its own row is publishable, because below that the share is measuring one posting rather than a policy. Companies under the floor are still counted in every total on this page.
Medians exclude hourly roles. The median is the midpoint of ranges published in dollars per year. Hourly roles are counted and shown separately, never folded in, and no median is drawn below 5 roles.
Counted daily, dated. The fold runs once a day and writes one dated edition. This page reads that edition's rows and nothing else, so the numbers on it were all counted in the same pass, in the same instant.
Not the whole market. Every figure is scoped to the companies whose own boards this feed reads. It is not a survey, not a sample of employers at large, and it says nothing about what any role pays.
Company rows are withheld. Per-company rows are folded every day and are not published in this edition. Naming an employer's disclosure rate is a claim about that employer drawn from our reading of their board, and that is a decision the owner has not made.
