Use the Internet to find where companies can gather credible compensation AND benefits information for the following: Executive level positions (CEO, CFO, VPs, Directors) Non-Executive positions such as customer service rep and manufacturing machine operator You are looking to find sources you could use to determine how much to pay someone in each type of position AND what types of benefits (health, dental, etc & bonuses) a person in the role would expect. It is not unusual to have to use different sources to find information on the two different types of positions. List 2 sources for each position type and explain why the source and the information is credible. How difficult was it to find credible compensation AND benefits information? If you did not find any sites to be credible, explain your reasoning. Be sure to mention if you found more information on one type of compensation over the other (salary but not benefits for example). Include a brief summary of the content from the source including: a) how the data is gathered, b) how much it costs for a company to obtain and c) how it is broken down i.e. geographic, company size, industry, specific position, etc. d) how current the information is Given your research and thinking through these issues, what are your thoughts about a business's ability to create competitive compensation packages for each of these roles? Provide reasons, reasons, reasons for your thinking. Give examples from your own experience or from those you know.
