In this economy, architecture and engineering recruiters are chasing your star employees, so retaining them is mission-critical. Is your bonus and benefits package in line with peer firm offerings? Are you overspending on some benefits, while under-investing in others?
Incentive compensation and benefit package design is where many AE firms struggle, operating on hunches, outmoded thinking, overheard anecdotes, rumors, and fuzzy math. Get this wrong, and the good employees leave while the bad ones stay.
Make smart benefits and bonus decisions using the hard data and plain English analysis you get in the fully updated and expanded 2025 AE Bonus & Benefit Plans Benchmark Results.
"This is one of the best data sets I have ever received! Extremely valuable information in here."
