Starting out of school with a BS in computer science or computer engineering was GS 7 or 8, so around $40-50k/year. The salaries are public for each level. Additional degrees do not move you off the GS scale. Reaching the equivalent of executive level can mean moving beyond GS to the senior executive service (SES).
