Teachers are the biggest gathering of experts assuming a significant part in improving the general public. The prominent role of teachers in building society and the negative impact of dissatisfied faculty members are the two reasons that have instigated the employers to look in to the minute details of faculty job satisfaction. Several researches have been conducted globally on determination of faculty job satisfaction, identification of parameters that lead to job satisfaction of teachers etc., the amount of literature is itself witness to the importance of job satisfaction and its remarkable role in building the organization. One of the numerous ways to deal with performance enhancement in the higher education area is salary. The current examination targets researching the connection between the salary and its extent on the satisfaction of employees in advanced education area. The insightful examination was done on 350 employees from both public and private Universities in Lucknow-Uttar Pradesh. Simple random sampling technique was used and a survey was conducted to collect data from the targeted population, the instrument utilized for data collection was questionnaire. The researcher conducted factor analysis through SPSS in order to identify various factors that influence job satisfaction. Factor analysis was carried out with principal component analysis on 35 items. Total five factors extracted for job satisfaction, for a total variance of 78.4 % of all items. Further K-S test was conducted; since the data was non-normal, so nonparametric test (Mann·Whitney U test)was utilized. The indicator or autonomous factors were the 5 distinguished components of job fulfillment(Salary, Promotion Opportunity, Work Environment, Research Opportunity, and Job Enrichment). The demographic factors were (Gender, Highest Qualification, Public or Private Nature of University, Designation). The information was dissected by SPSS.21.The result uncovered that the "salary" indicated no huge distinction as for gender, designation, and highest qualification. Although the status of University (private or public nature) has a huge contrast on salary, with public University having a higher mean score, this suggested that faculty members from public Universityshowed higher satisfaction due to salary offered to them.
