Findings from our in-depth survey of U.S. & UK workers
How do employees really feel about compensation, benefits, pay equity, and transparency—and what can employers do to stay ahead? In November 2024, we surveyed over 1,800 U.S. and UK employees to uncover the latest workplace trends. Our 2025 Compensation and Culture Report reveals key insights to help you refine your compensation strategy, boost retention, and align with employee expectations.
Some of the highlights include:
- The workplace initiatives and conditions that employees value (and what might lead them to consider switching jobs)
- The effects of inflation and pay compression
- How workers understand their total compensation
- Current trends in benefits and pay
- What employees think about pay equity, pay transparency, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) initiatives
We created this report to help businesses better understand employees’ concerns, values, and motivators—with the end goal of creating workplaces that attract and leverage talent. We look at the survey data with an eye to demographically-based differences and trends over time, drawing out practical insights and action items.
