I have no idea what a correctional officer makes. That is no the part of the criminal justice system I entered.
You rock! This advice is very helpful.

Salaries are determined by the state if it is a state institution, or by the county if is a local institution, IE; county jail. The federal system has their own pay grades.
The salaries are usually posted on the institution’s website.

It depends on if you want to work in a jail, a state prison, or a federal prison. All will have different salaries for their officers. Decide which type of corrections officer you want to be before looking further.

I recommend for any salary type questions to navigate to " www.glassdoor.com" or download the app for "glassdoor". You have to search for the specific job type and the data is from prior employees that have been in a role for a certain company in a certain area so you can narrow for your region.
I appreciate you taking the time to answer this.
