C2HR's Connectivity Provider Compensation Survey

C2HR’s Compensation Survey for connectivity providers (MSOs, satellite and telecommunications companies) analyzes more than 600 industry-specific jobs from CEO to trainee installer, including advertising and commercial sales positions. In 2024, eleven (11) companies — representing 98,487 employees — are using the C2HR Survey data to understand salary differentials and benchmark compensation; to establish job architectures, and rationalize pay levels and pay structures; and to make informed decisions about bonus plans and equity plans. The participant companies in the survey represent the majority of industry employers, thus providing strong industry representation. They include the largest MSOs as well as regional cable and telecommunications operators. View the 2024 Survey Participants.
