The total compensation for this position is $60,000 to $61,500 per year. It is expected that the total compensation would be near the top end of that range. The total compensation comes from an hourly rate of $28.85/hr. ($60,000/yr.), and a quarterly bonus that has historically ranged from $350-400 (around $1,500/yr.) If required by management to work beyond 40 billable hours per week, that overtime is paid at $43.28/hr. This would increase total compensation.
