Oracle 2015 salary survey
Oracle Database Tips by Donald BurlesonUpdated

Also see the 2015 Top Computer Information Systems jobs.
Even in this
recession, Oracle jobs look very appealing with salaries that rival
engineers and other professionals, with starting salaries as high as $85,000
with senior Oracle DBA's commonly earning over $130,000 per year, and Oracle
superstars
earning over a quarter million dollars a year.
Why so much money? It's because Oracle is the world's most
sophisticated, robust and flexible database. See my notes on
How to
become an Oracle Professional.
Oracle Corporation recently
published their 2015 Oracle salary survey which shows an average 2015 DBA salary of $97,000 with the highest salaries to consultants and
those with lots of experience, living in high-cost areas.
As a
general guideline, a well-qualified Oracle professional (master degree) will
earn
age times three, so a 30 year old Oracle professional can expect, on
average, at least $90,000 per year.

Oracle professional, see my notes here:

become an Oracle DBA
The salary survey also shows that experience
counts most, and jobs with the most responsibility (DBA, consultant) makes
the highest Oracle salaries:
