Project Details
Project Title Compensation Change In The Workforce: Measuring Fiscal Compensation Vs Flexibility; What Do People Want
Project Synopsis

What is the challenge or opportunity you are trying to address within your organization?

Looking to see what demographics value the most, specifically college graduates, professionals with 5-10 years experience, and then professionals with over 10+ of workforce experience. Would like to see what the breakdown is percentage wise in terms of fiscal compensation vs flexibility as it relates to the overall compensation package. Is there a certain $ amount, perk, or benefit that would increase the amount of people who would apply, interview, and accept the job? What are the top 3 things people value and take into account when deciding where to work (rank and add percentage). Eventually being able to look at the data and build recruiting architypes for each demographic previously mentioned. 


What are some of the activities or action items you think will need to be taken to achieve your desired results?

  • Work life balance vs salary 
  • What attracts talent 
  • What retains talent
