Compensation Trends in Canada's Tech Industry: What's the Data Telling Us?

Each September TAP Network releases its highly anticipated Canadian Tech Sector Salary and Total Rewards Survey which encompasses 30,000 data points from its 200+ member companies across Canada. In the past 18 months the tech industry experienced an extreme swing from the "great resignation" and a struggle to retain talent to a cooling period, with many companies forced to take cost cutting measures. All of this came on top of the highest inflation rates in decades. 

As we look forward to 2024, where did salaries land? How are companies budgeting for annual increases? Is remote work changing workplace benefits in the sector? What positions remain in demand and how do you compete? 

Join TAP Network and their compensation survey partners at Mercer for an insightful, data driven conversation about compensation trends in Canada’s tech sector.
