Market Analysis

All organizations need to know what competitors pay for the same or similar jobs. The first step in market pricing is to understand your company's jobs. We will provide thorough job analysis that enables us to match your jobs to those at competitor organizations or to compensation surveys.

It's important to select the right data source for market comparison. We will work with you to select a valid, reliable published survey with jobs and company participants that align with your business. An appropriate survey would include information for base salaries, incentive targets and payouts, and long-term equity data. For executive positions, proxy data can combine with survey data to provide a comprehensive view of market pay for these key positions. No matter what the data source, we provide expert analysis and advice in interpreting that data.

If published surveys do not provide complete information on all your key jobs we can conduct a custom survey to focus on currently "hot jobs" for which there is little published data, or on nonstandard jobs, or to target specific competitor companies. We know how to obtain participation in these custom surveys and how to interpret the results.

To get a better view of the marketplace for your jobs please contact us.
