Salary vs. Growth Matrix

Occupation Median Salary Job Growth 2023-33 Outlook Tech Impact Entry Education

What This Table Means

Job Growth ≥8% = strong demand (outlook score 20). 4-8% = stable (40). 0-4% = flat (60). <0% = shrinking (85).

Tech Impact is not "AI panic": 改造型 (reshaped) means the job exists but tools are changing — most professional jobs. 受益型 (amplified) means tech increases demand. 替代型 (displaced) means core tasks are automatable. This is trend analysis, not doom — every technology cycle creates new jobs while transforming old ones.

Data source: BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook & OEWS 2023. Median salary is the 50th percentile — half earn more, half earn less. Job growth is BLS's 2023-2033 projection, which already incorporates expected technology impacts.
