See the current pay-grade listings, pay changes EVERY YEAR (COLA-Cost of Living Adjustments). Pay grade is the E grade; a Sergeant in the US Army is an E-5. A corporal or specialist is an E-4, Private First Class is an E-3, Privates are E-2 and E-1. Officers will have an "O" grade; 0-1 is a 2nd Lieutenant, 0-3 is a Captain, etc.
Here is a link below to the Army's website page that shows you what they earn. Just make sure you read the whole page and check the bonus links because they are paid bonuses for many different things which brings their total pay way higher than the basic pay.

Base pay for a SFC (Sergeant First Class) or E-7 (in all US military branches) with two or fewer years in service is $2515.50. Actual pay will be more as the likelihood of two or fewer years for an E-7 is slim.
For the US Military, basic pay currently is based on longevity...the length of time the servicemember has served.
To give you some range of pay calculated using the 2010 rates:
Sergeant First Class E-7, 10 years: $3396
Sergeant First Class E-7, 12 years: $3505
Sergeant First Class E-7, 14 years: $3859
2016 base pay rates for O-5 (Sergeant) in the US Army range from a little over $2200 per month to a little under $3200 per month depending on years of service.
However, Army personnel also get a housing and food allowance, plus certain tax advantages, and there can be bonus pay for certain types of jobs.

It depends on his or her rank, but a Sergeant who's a dental assistant makes the same money as a Sergeant who's a truck driver, cook, mortarman or drill instructor.
I've attached a related link below for salaries provided on the official Army website. Their pay is around 28-32 thousand.
Yes. Even though the position itself is largely administrative, a First Sergeant is very much a leader, being the senior NCO of a company.
