Either he's full of crap, or they're paying him way too much unless he has some other managerial responsibilities. The only way to make 200K is to be a sought-after independent consultant (at $100 an hour or so). The going rate in the Denver area is $40 - $60 an hour (sometimes up to $75, but never $100!)

Lemme get this right.

This guy is a *new* DBA. He's making 150k and he's not even a senior DBA, where he can make 200k?

That's all from me. I'm gonna go sulk now.
