Marketing Manager salary percentiles

What Marketing Managers are actually paid

Every other salary site shows the LCA-posted wage — the wage for the position. Using USCIS I-129 petition data, we can compare that against the actual pay the sponsored worker received, and the prevailing-wage floor, across 1,167 matched Marketing Managers petitions.

The median worker is paid 3.8% above the posted LCA wage, but the mean actual pay runs 2.5% above the mean posted wage — so the upside is concentrated in the top earners. 27.5% are paid above their posted wage, 67.6% at it, and 4.9% below.

Actual-pay data covers FY2021–FY2024 cap-subject H-1B lottery petitions matched to certified LCAs (aggregates only). Base wage excludes equity and bonuses, so it is not total compensation. Source: I-129 petition data sourced from USCIS, obtained by Bloomberg.

Of 18,499 filings, 4,380 are H-1B (temporary work visa) and 14,119 are PERM (green-card labor certification, 76% of the total).
