Dominique Dansky Bari (Director Of Stenography) — $95,500
Apparently, the position director of stenography for the White House is one of the few that isn’t driven by political alignment. Dominique Dansky Bari started her job under Trump in June 2017, but before that, she had been the deputy director of stenography for Obama’s White House since 2014. The job involves managing official White House stenographers. They take notes on every meeting and also deliver transcripts to the media after official events. Under Obama, the director of stenography was Margaret Suntum, who got paid $117,846 in 2016, which means the position got a pay cut in Trump’s White House.

Rickie Niceta (Social Secretary) — $168,000
The Washington Post has called the role of social secretary as the “least controversial” job at the White House. The role involves planning and executing many social events the White House hosts. First lady Melania Trump went with Anna “Rickie” Niceta for the social secretary position because of her twenty years of experience in event planning. Niceta gets paid $168,000 per year in the role, while Deesha Dyer made $119,723 in 2016 under Obama.
