What belongs in the pay comparison

OEWS includes straight-time gross wages, guaranteed pay, commissions and production bonuses. It excludes overtime, nonproduction bonuses and employer-paid benefits. A discretionary annual, retention or sign-on bonus is not the same as a production bonus. Ask what earns each payment before comparing the offer with this table. Equity is separate from the cash wage shown here. State those terms alongside base pay; the BLS percentile does not price them for you.

Reading this page's BLS evidence

What do the released numbers measure?

For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the May 2025 OEWS row records a annual median of $83,510 under Senior Credit Analyst (SOC 13-2041, Credit Analysts). The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States mapping is a broader occupation, not a separately measured wage for this hiring title; the occupation name attached to this median is Credit Analysts. The released Senior Credit Analyst in the United States employment field is 64,390 jobs, which describes the SOC rather than a count of candidates available to take your opening.

How much room is inside the published band?

The middle-half annual band for Senior Credit Analyst in the United States runs from $65,210 at P25 to $122,460 at P75, a width of $57,250. For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the lower half of that band covers $18,300, while the upper half covers $38,950; the upper side therefore accounts for more of the middle-half spread. An offer for Senior Credit Analyst in the United States can move within that published band without justifying an exact percentile claim, and these points do not identify junior, senior or manager pay grades.

How does this estimate compare with the national figure?

The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States median is the national reference for this SOC, not a city-specific offer target. For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the national mean is $100,850, $17,340 above its median; the average and midpoint consequently describe different features of the released wage distribution. The national Senior Credit Analyst in the United States figure pools places and employers, so a local offer should also be checked against an actual area row rather than being described as a local premium.

Which other metro estimates can you compare?

The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States comparison uses the two metropolitan estimates with the largest published employment for this occupation: New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, where the annual median for Credit Analysts is $136,500; Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX, where the annual median for Credit Analysts is $80,530. These Senior Credit Analyst in the United States neighbors are selected only from metros with a published median for the same SOC, so suppression can change which comparisons are available. For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the geography comes from Census Gazetteer internal points where available, not a claim about commuting time, recruiting reach or an employer's payroll policy.

What can the industry rows tell you?

Among the loaded national industry rows relevant to Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the highest numeric annual medians are Securities, Commodity Contracts, and Other Financial Investments and Related Activities (NAICS 523000), $135,390; Monetary Authorities-Central Bank (NAICS 521000), $101,000. The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States industry comparison excludes top-coded and suppressed medians from exact ranking and is limited to the industries loaded for this brand, not every possible industry. For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, these are national industry cuts of the same SOC, not proof that this exact title earns those amounts.

What changed in the published median?

For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, the prior 2024-05 median was $80,970, compared with $83,510 in 2025-05; the released medians differ by $2,540 upward. This Senior Credit Analyst in the United States comparison is subtraction of published medians, not an annualized growth forecast or a claim that the same workers received that change. The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States year-over-year cells use the same SOC and area code, but changes in the surveyed employment mix can still affect what the two medians describe.

What belongs outside the wage budget?

The Senior Credit Analyst in the United States annual median of $83,510 is an OEWS wage measure, not a complete employer-cost budget. For Senior Credit Analyst in the United States, guaranteed pay and incentive pay including commissions and production bonuses belong inside the OEWS definition, so adding all commission again would double-count a component the survey includes. Overtime, nonproduction bonuses and employer benefit costs are excluded from the Senior Credit Analyst in the United States wage definition; budget those separately when relevant, but this the United States row supplies no dollar amounts for them, equity or relocation.
