These are wages Microsoft Corporation committed to for sponsored roles in filings with the US Department of Labor. They are not company-wide averages, and not necessarily what US-citizen staff in the same jobs earn. Any role–state cell with fewer than three filings is withheld so no individual’s pay is identifiable.
