Annual Compensation  Survey



CASRO's Annual Compensation Survey

Notice: Anti-trust Guidelines Re.: CASRO Survey Activities

CASRO's Annual Compensation Survey is a valuable resource for U.S.-based full-service research companies both large and small.

The report derived from this comprehensive survey provides detailed information on dozens of job positions across all regions in the U.S. Executives rely on CASRO's Compensation Report to review research industry compensation practices, including salary, bonuses and benefits.

Please note that the report statistics are for informational use only.  They may not be used to set salaries and/or to justify to an employee why his or her salary has been set at a particular amount.

CASRO members from full-service firms that participate in the survey receive the final report free of charge. Non-participating CASRO members and non-members may purchase a copy by contacting us.

The survey data is collected each spring and the final report is released in early summer. Data is collected securely online by an independent third party and is kept strictly confidential and reported in aggregate. If you have questions about the survey or if you are a member and wish to participate, please contact us.

Survey Information includes:

- What companies in the Northeast are paying new hires

- What mid-sized firms pay their VPs
