Sounds to me more like you have too high expectations rather than Statistician pay isn't good. If you can make 85k basic + 2-3 mth bonus means total annual package already 100k+ for just 8 years exp.

Dun always compare to jobs like investment banker, lawyer, oil trader etc. Look around you and see if there are many accountants, engineers, marketer, programmer etc. that can make 100k in just 8 years. You are definitely above average already.
