The
foundation of the firm’s research is the continuous monitoring of
compensation, attitudes, and workplace experiences of 98,000 IT workers in
more than 2,000 North American employers. Foote Partners distinction in
the marketplace is its completely unique compensation survey methodology
that solves the widespread problem of IT job titles that don't match what
workers actually do on-the-job---a serious problem plaguing every major IT
salary survey available today that uses passive-survey data collection
methods tied to job titles. The firm’s highly specialized proprietary
data collection methodology and analytical techniques produce superior
validation and reliability by correcting participant job titles to match
actual job responsibilities before the survey data enters our survey
data compilation engine. All surveys are updated continuously and
published quarterly.
