If levels.fyi used info from job listings, it would end up completely useless like the pay ranges companies post.

The whole reason it works, is because it does not use “official data.”



It’s possible to track two different things.

The former information is credible and useful for looking at long term supply and demand trends.

The latter information is useful for negotiating individual compensation.
