How do SPN salaries compare with the market average?
They are well below the market average. For example, the annual salary of SPN’s System Administrator is less than 60% of the $107,709 median salary in Connecticut for a client/server programmer with 8-10 years of experience (source: salary.com). Likewise, the annual salary of SPN’s Social Network Web Developer is less than 65% of the $78,640 median salary in Connecticut for web software developers (source: salary.com). Even SPN’s highly trained student assistants work for the relatively modest sum of $8-9 per hour. Without exception, SPN employees contribute their time, talent, and hard work because they hope to be of service to others, not because the financial incentives are large.
