Methodology: We asked respondents which benefits they currently receive, which they would like to receive, and how satisfied they are with their benefits. These results are shown by job family. Confidence is based on valid responses for each question: High (50+), Moderate (20–49), and Limited (fewer than 20). C-suite data is not displayed publicly due to confidentiality and the significant variation in executive roles and reward structures. For executive-level benchmarking, Data eXec, our Executive Search company can provide tailored insight through a private and confidential conversation. Results below the minimum threshold are directional only.
