Guide to interpreting the results of the salary surveys:
• The horizontal axis (bottom) represents the years of experience.
• The vertical axis (side) represents the dollar amount of compensation.
• The green, blue and orange dots represent base salary (green), bonus (blue) and total compensation (orange).
• The orange line (total compensation), the green line (base salary), and the blue line (bonus) are the linear trendlines marking the average increase in compensation as someone gains years of experience.
