Can somebody tell me as to what pen testers typically earns?

I once talked to a firm doing pen testing and the figures they paid were the same as any other firm would pay a midlevel developer working in a regular software dept in a corporation in that city.

Assuming pen testing requires a skill level a notch or two above the 'average' developer, I would have normally assumed that ideally they would be paid significantly better.
