What the file says
# My Salary Scale ## About My Salary Scale is the go-to platform for crowdsourced salary data across Africa. Users anonymously share their pay details and instantly see how their compensation compares with peers in the same city, industry, and experience bracket. The service turns raw submissions into clean charts that show median salaries, bonus ranges, and year-over-year movement. Recruiters and HR teams rely on the numbers to set competitive offers, while job seekers use the insights to negotiate with real data instead of guesswork. The platform currently covers nine African countries and keeps expanding as more professionals contribute. Because everything is user-generated, the team focuses on validation and privacy rather than scraping public listings. Visitors can filter results by years of experience, company size, education level, and specific skills. Short articles explain how inflation or currency shifts affect take-home pay in places like Lagos or Nairobi. The site stays free for individuals and offers paid plans for companies that need deeper analytics. Quarterly reports published by the team often get picked up by local business media and occasionally cited in policy discussions. The founders still run operations with a small remote team and have chosen to stay bootstrapped. Their main ongoing task is keeping the dataset fresh while protecting contributor anonymit
