I apologize in advance for posting this here, but the Midrange-NonTech list
appears to have been abandoned.

I am in the process of negotiating my salary for a company that wants to
transition me from a contractor to a salaried employee. I am somewhat new
to the Grand Rapids, MI job market but, considering the cost of living
here, especially related to the explosive housing prices, the salary I'm
being offered, for someone with over 25 years of experience on the IBM
midrange platform, and two years experience working at this particular
company, seems rather low. I would like to negotiate from a position using
as much factual data as possible. I remembered the name Nate Viall, and
found a link to http://www.nateviall.com/ in a 10-year old post in the
archives, but the link is dead. I emailed him using an address from
LinkedIn, and he let me know that he retired.

I found:

For Grand Rapids, MI:
http://www.competitive-position.info/salary-report/view.html?job=rpg-developer&location=grand-rapids-mi-usa&date=2018&years-experience=11&months-experience=1
For United States:
http://www.competitive-position.info/salary-report/view.html?job=rpg-developer&location=usa&date=2018&years-experience=11&months-experience=1

...but am unsure of the source of the data used to support the results.

Can anyone recommend a reliable source for salary reports?
