On par with the lower end of the GS-14 - I'd say $115,000

What part of IT? It varies greatly.

In my circle, mostly programmers, we all make around $200k with 15-20 years of experience with sought-after skills. Some of those who knows how to work "smart" easily make $300k to $500k.

The chart upstairs is the average and personally I do not know anyone personally with 15-20 years of experiences as a programmer makes only $100k and if you are? You are doing it wrong.

Lastly, no one cares about degrees these days anymore honestly especially if you carry 15-20 years of experience under your belt.

With clearance v.s no clearance makes a BIG difference in our area.

It doesn't necessarily means it pays more, but it does open up wider opportunities and such you are in a better position to negotiate the salary. I tried to pass a job that pays around 130/hr on 1099 to my friend, but he doesn't even have a secret clearance, so he's stuck with his $140k job.

I am working as a Salesforce Consultant making 350k. I think you are well qualified, you need to market yourself. Good luck!

Just to add to this, no one is going to hire anyone (non SME) for a position that requires a clearance on day 1 based on clearable. Why? The process is broking/it will take at least a year, and possible more than two years to get cleared.
