At roughly $16/hr, this posting comes in about 38% below the $26/hr median for welding jobs across Florida, where the middle half runs $22–$31/hr across 110 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 0% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. That gap is worth raising directly — in a market this size there is normally room to negotiate toward the median, particularly if you already hold the certifications the posting asks for.
