That being said... I think the OP would just like a general answer. Ball-park figures aren't lies, as so long as they are indicated as ball-park figures.
It's not a lie if you just simply state/indicate what the average figure is that you've seen in your area. So, if someone can contribute such an answer, let them do so. I'm sure the OP was just trying to get a general idea- Scholar or not. Geeesh... sometimes it amazes me how simple answers are so hard to come by on this list. No offense intended NRF. As for myself, I don't know what the going salary/consulting rate is in the D/FW area of Texas for a CCIE... So I can't comment on such. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: n rf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 7:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: how about ccie salary in US?

Seriously, CCIE salaries have been down for awhile and any honest discussion about salaries is going to be necessarily negative. When something's black, it would be a lie to call it white. As far as the original question, so much depends on your experience level, the geographical location, things like holding a degree (or not). Strong candidates that have lots of experience, are well educated, and are in places can still pull nice salaries. But I'm also aware of CCIE's applying for positions that pay less than 30k - and not getting them. The point is that the CCIE by itself guarantees nothing.
