C2HR Invites Industry Employers to Participate in the 2025 C2HR Compensation Surveys

SPRINGFIELD, ILL., February 25, 2025 — The Content & Connectivity Human Resources Association (C2HR) invites eligible industry employers to participate in its 2025 Compensation Surveys. The 2025 results will provide industry-specific benchmarks essential to enabling organizations to assess whether their pay practices remain competitive in light of a new presidential administration, shifting labor policies, rising prices and the continued rollout of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace.

“Reliable salary benchmark data is key to ensuring fair and competitive pay,” said Parthavi Das, executive director of C2HR. “It empowers organizations to make strategic compensation decisions, retain top talent and stay ahead in an evolving job market. C2HR’s Compensation Surveys provide those essential pay benchmarks.”

C2HR’s surveys provide an industry-specific, in-depth analysis of pay practices for more than 137,844* incumbents, including both exempt and nonexempt positions ranging from technicians to top executives. The surveys are the among the most robust in the industry and capture the bulk of jobs; the 2024 surveys reported data from 11 connectivity providers and 38 content developers.

Participants submit data reflecting 2025 budgets for base salaries, short-term and long-term incentive plans, and sales compensation. The surveys and their findings are separated into two participant categories: connectivity providers (multiple system operators [MSOs], satellite, telecommunications and home security companies) and content developers (digital content creators, cable programmers and broadcast networks).

The 2025 Connectivity Provider and Content Developer Surveys include a combined total of more than 1,500 positions. As a result of annual planning meetings in January, the Content Developers Survey added one new job family—Stage Management—and 49 new position titles. The 2025 Connectivity Provider Survey added two new job families—Administration and Retention Sales— and 13 new positions.

Data for the 2025 surveys is due in April. Survey results are delivered in September via a secure online data portal that allows for customizable Excel spreadsheets and presentation-ready reports for every position. Survey participants receive tools for analysis, including paired comparison and title-matched reports. For executive compensation data, participants also receive a regression analyses by revenue and subscribers.

Given the highly confidential survey data, the results from any given company cannot be seen. Only summary information pertaining to all participants is available. This reporting approach follows Safe Harbor guidelines and encourages participation without fear of exposing proprietary information to the public. C2HR has commissioned the Croner Company to collect and analyze the data and identify industry trends and benchmarks.
