This topic never gets many replies. I will reply because I am not
really part of the community.

It depends massively on the company, where you live and your skill
level.  For a normal area (not San Francisco, etc) I think the
following is sane:

Jr DBA: 50-75k (probably 3+ years of relevant experience, but not DBA
experience)
DBA: 60-90k (several years DBA experience)
Sr DBA:80-120k (several years DBA experience plus extensive knowledge)

Anyone feel like correcting me?
