H1B disclosures vs. CompBioJobs postings — quick read
The median midpoint of 7 AstraZeneca job-ad ranges in our database ($189K) is ~15% higher than the H1B median offered base ($165K). This gap is typical: job ads publish a salary range (top end is a stretch), while H1B reports the single offered base salary — and ads often span a wider mix of seniority levels than what shows up in H1B filings, which skew senior.
