Salary ranges

We already know that a Regional Field Engineer can earn between 34,380 ERN and 125,100 ERN on average in Eritrea. This is known as the range in statistics.

If you are earning more than the median salary, that's a good indicator that you are being paid well.

If you're not earning more than the median salary, your objective should be to increase your earnings to be at least as high as the median salary (which you can do by asking for a pay rise, looking for a better paying job, etc).
