Accurate and Up-to-date IT Salary Data
Salary data for Foote Partner’s Quarterly IT Salary + Skills Pay Reports comes directly from nearly 2,000 companies - not from aggregated data sources or compilation of others' salary surveys. 93,000 IT professionals from the public and private sector are monitored continuously. Data is updated and republished every three months, guaranteeing that the data in this report series is more current than any other source out there.
The accuracy of these reports is unmatched in the compensation survey industry. Foote Partners IT compensation research has been featured in Business Week, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, National Public Radio, CNN and dozens of IT and HR publications.
Unlike most salary surveys that merely list job title and salary, Foote Partners carefully analyzes the responsibilities and skills for each respondent to correct for titles that do not match what workers actually do on-the-job. Using multiple validation techniques including direct interviewing and aggressive interactive surveying, Foote Partners assigns the titles for each worker surveyed based on what they actually do, not what their job title may erroneously suggest that they do. There is no other IT compensation research firm that does this.
Each survey report corresponds to one or more common groups of IT jobs:
Each Quarterly IT Salary + Skills Pay Report contains base salary and cash bonus data for 20 tier 1 U.S. cities, 44 tier 2 U.S. cities or 18 Canadian cities - plus pay data for individual IT skills and certifications commonly held by job incumbents for each jobs.

When should you use Foote Partners data?
- For mismatches, stale or questionable data from your usual surveys, or when you can't find a job title or the right city in those surveys.
- When you *must* have the most accurate, up-to-date data possible.
- When job titles don't match actual job responsibilities and you need to use IT skills pay to equalize.
- When custom consulting rates for a specialized data need are out of the question, or will take too long.
- When you need an answer quickly for a meeting tomorrow.
- When it's too much trouble to create a job description (and you need a really good one)
