Ranked by median in the unit BLS published. Annual and hourly figures are never converted for ranking: occupations BLS released hourly only are ranked in a separate hourly table. "Or more" medians rank at the top-code threshold. Entries without a published median are not listed.

"vs all occupations" divides the role's annual median by the area's all-occupations annual median. LQ is employment concentration, not a pay adjustment.

What these figures leave out for technology hires

BLS OEWS wages are straight-time gross pay. They include base rate, guaranteed pay, incentive pay including commissions and production bonuses, and cost-of-living allowances. They exclude overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses, severance and employer-paid benefits.

Our interpretation, not a BLS statement: the BLS definition does not name stock or equity grants, so we treat them as outside these figures and add nothing for them. If a technology offer leans on discretionary bonus or equity, we read the published figure as describing only the cash pay inside the BLS definition.

BLS definition: Wages for the OEWS survey are straight-time, gross pay, exclusive of premium pay. Base rate; cost-of-living allowances; guaranteed pay; hazardous-duty pay; incentive pay, including commissions and production bonuses; and tips are included. Excluded are overtime pay, severance pay, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses, employer cost for supplementary benefits, and tuition reimbursements.

Save a hiring market brief for Cleveland, TN

What do these figures mean for technology hiring in Cleveland, TN?

For technology hiring in Cleveland, TN, the May 2025 median is $125,380 per year for Computer and Information Systems Managers (SOC 11-3021); it describes workers in that BLS occupation and geography, not an independent survey of this recruiting title or a quote for a candidate with a particular background.

The middle half of the occupation behind technology hiring in Cleveland, TN runs from $98,180 to $163,110, a $64,930 band; compare responsibilities before using those endpoints in an offer, because the distribution does not identify junior, senior or management pay grades.

For technology hiring in Cleveland, TN, the outer published markers are $76,320 at P10 and $209,360 at P90; an amount between those points has no exact percentile assigned here, while a source-marked lower bound stays open and an unavailable wage stays unavailable rather than becoming zero.

The technology hiring in Cleveland, TN occupation median compares with $175,140 nationally, a difference of -$49,760; both cells use SOC 11-3021, and the difference is neither a cost-of-living adjustment nor a premium every local candidate receives for doing the job.

Area comparisons for technology hiring in Cleveland, TN include Dalton, GA at $161,140 and Chattanooga, TN-GA at $152,980; these metros are selected by Census reference-point distance, not commuting time, and each figure remains tied to its own BLS area rather than replacing an unpublished local estimate.
