[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what's the avg salary for stem spouses? [/quote] STEM covers a multitude of areas. Help desk support is "STEM", but does not make much; Hardware IT support does ok, but not great (also STEM). These are the low-end positions. At the higher end, you have scientists, engineers, etc. In the DC area, salaries are mostly governed by the the Government pays...typically the the non-governmental STEM professionals in contracting will be 20-30% above the GS salary scale. Out of school in physical sciences or engineering, 50-90k (50 BA, 90 PhD). At 5 years out, someone that is good should be pulling down 100+; Currently salaries max out between 160K and 200K unless the person is special. I know a few that make closer to 300K (I don't). I am a PhD scientist, 22 years post doctorate, and make about 180k[/quote]
