This feature has been added with the help of the data that the members have already put in regards to base pay, bonus as well as the stock grants. Just a couple of weeks before Glassdoor had come up with the feature where the users can determine personal market value. Now, soon after that
LinkedIn also added this feature based on the hiring trends! But the company expects that it is quite important to include the company’s members too in that. If they participate in this program then this will truly be a hit.
It is expected that near about 1 million people will give the salary data to the site and so this will help in determining the base salary of the professionals. It is estimated that professionals from USA, Canada and North America will all take part in the same. However, the sites have suggested that they will never make the salary data public. Thus, the users and the participants should be stress free in regards to this. However, it is seen that often the sites use the data and sell off to the employers who would want some high profile employee in their company or for the salary calculations and so against some charges. So, the users always feel bit apprehensive to reveal the details about the package. The sites are already earning well with the job listings and the hiring tools. So, the main motive of the company is to retain the users and to enhance the number of users for their site.

This has helped the people in past and even in future it would be quite beneficial.
