Earnings: Figuring Total Value
The job offering the highest salary may not represent
your best deal, says Paul L. Dyer, in his excellent book
"The
Ultimate Job Search Survival Guide," (Peterson, 1998). The
occasion
of our annual salary survey — this year focussed on executives
with publicly accountable companies and institutions — is an
appropriate
time to share some of Dyer’s advice.
As you read the survey below some salaries, and especially some hefty
1997 bonuses, may make dollar signs dance in your eyes. But Dyer
implores
job candidates to keep searching for career treasure; money isn’t
everything. Dyer offers a seven-step career negotiation process, based
on the work of Roger Fisher and William Ury of the Harvard Negotiation
Project:
of money you need, your "gotta have" figure, the amount you
are used to receiving, and come up with a "dream figure."
Find out the job’s real market value, as determined by the personnel
department.

Salary Scorecard
For some executives a salary can seem like an
afterthought.
Bill Gates pulls in a measly $349,992 a year, with a $241,360 bonus.
The bulk of his billions comes from the hundred-something million
shares of Microsoft stock he owns.
In the case of Robert Jelenic, a relatively paltry 1997 salary of
$825,000 was supplemented by a bonus of $10 million. Jelenic,
chairman,
president, and CEO of the Journal Register Co., the newspaper chain
based on West State Street in Trenton, was paid $5,685,428 in common
stock and $4,651,714 in cash, according to the Journal Register’s
1997 proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
And Jelenic’s colleagues in the Journal Register executive suite also
received huge bonuses, for what must have been a superlative year
at the company.
But for the rest of us, salaries have been growing at a more relaxed
clip.
"The market has become tighter over the last year than previous
years and as a result we’re seeing some greater increase of salaries
than in the past, but not a lot more," says John Sturges, managing
principal of Siebrand-Wilton Associates’ benefits and compensation
design group, based in Marlboro. "For instance I would expect
over the next year salaries to increase between 4.7 and 5 percent,
and last year they had probably increased 4.2 percent.
This isn’t a consistent percentage either, he reports. Pay increases
in information technology can be as high as 10 to 12 percent.
Sturges also notes that, unlike previous years, very few
"innovative"
remuneration practices are being hyped. "We don’t see a lot of
non-traditional programs beginning," he says. Maybe that’s because
employers have found already-invented non-traditional programs
suitable.
One of them, "broadbanding," is getting more and more popular
with large companies. Broadbanding refers to grouping several tiers
of salaries together in one range. This gives employees more room
for salary growth without having to be promoted, and gives companies
the opportunity to move employees laterally with fewer restrictions.
One trend is the practice of opening up stock options to more classes
of employees. "We’re seeing managers having opportunities for
stock options, and we’re even seeing some cases below the managerial
level," he says. And with the market correction lowering the price
of many stocks, it’s a relatively good time to get in, Sturges
reports.
Another trend — sign-on bonuses — is becoming a mainstay,
says Dan Kowalski, managing partner of Right Management Consultants.
"We are seeing a lot more sign on bonuses occurring with new hires
and those sign on bonuses are occurring at all levels."
One group that’s not experiencing very large pay increases are
nonprofit
employees. "They’re certainly not market leaders with salary,"
says Joan Kaspin Ph.D., president of Compensation Connections, a
consulting
firm based in Hightstown that specializes in nonprofit remuneration
programs. "They tend to focus not so much on direct salary but
on what other things they can offer employees such as flexible working
hours. People who work in nonprofits at all levels do so because they
believe in the mission and they want to be part of making that happen
rather than because of the salary."
