Hello guys,
First I apologize for asking non technical question but I am goging to move to the USA and I have 8 year experience as a senior linux admin, I am administering storage subsystems as well.
Can you please tell me how much is an average salary for Linux admins?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You could probably expect $50K to $80K depending on where in the USA, but you could have found that out from any recruitment site.

Hi,

That would I suspect be towards the top end of whats available for an admin, you can see a typical job advert here.

There may be significantly better jobs available, but these will be in the private sector and competition will be stiffer for them.
