L1 or H1 visa employers should ideally pay the prevailing wage for a particular profession and region.

So prevailing wage of a 2 year and a 5 year experienced professionals will be different. Similarly IT programmer or DBA salaries will be different. Similarly prevailing wage in Chicago and San Francisco will be different.

To find the prevailing wage for your profession, experience and region can be found at US dept. of labor website - Wages by Area and Occupation See here (http://www.bls.gov/bls/blswage.htm)

Hope I did not confuse you.. but this is how it works.
