I think recruiters are not helpful on such information at all. I have pushed away a couple of interviews and recruiters that just don't match the need and realise they either dunno or don't want to share the actual range.

The hard truth is that compensation range is large, and employees have the information disadvantage. I think my comps is below average if I do some simple math considering YOE, firm profile, job scope. But I spoke to a couple of peers in other firms and knew of both types who had much higher or lower comp than me.

Guess the only advice I have is continue to train your craft and keep a look out for suitable opportunities (team, role, pay)?
