Need help on deciphering job postings

Greetings Everyone.

I don't want to sound like a noob but I have a question in regards to MTA's employment posting. I've been looking at the postings for some time and I'm seeking for some clarification on their compensation.

What is the difference between when they mention minimum salary, mid, and compression?

I'm under the impression that minimum salary is what is being offered to new employees and compression is what's being offered to current employees of the mta? Then what exactly is mid?

Any help is highly appreciative and thanks in advance.

Salary range is just that; they may offer anything in that range. Unfortunately, current employees tend to get the short end of that stick because promotional raises tend to be based on a percentage of current salary as opposed to a budgeted figure. 

 

Compression salary is when a whole title or group is brought to the same matching salary. No negotiation, that's the rate.
