Employment Surveys
WCI produces several different kinds of surveys for employers that are valuable tools for measuring workplace culture, compensation trends, and specific practices, to help you develop a strategic culture of employee retention.
Employee Opinion Surveys
WCI's Employee Experience Analysis (EXA) surveys employees anonymously and provides management with in-depth analytics, accurate insights, and meaningful measurements of your workplace culture, complete with data interpretation and recommendations.
- EXA is designed to measure the key factors for employee retention
- WCI surveys employees online to ensure confidentiality and openness
- We have identified and measure 30 basic factors that comprise an employee's total experience
- EXA analyzes supervisor and company perceptions, the work environment, satisfaction, and wellbeing
- Strengths and vulnerabilities are measured by work groups and demographics
It also includes a proprietary index of engagement and vulnerability.

Wage & Salary Survey
The Southeast Compensation Survey is co-sponsored by WCI (NC) and Employers Network (SC). Participating members receive the final report at no charge. Participating non-members receive those portions of the survey report to which they contributed data at no charge.
This report presents data submitted by 134 unique employers for 396 hourly and salaried positions throughout Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina. Employer input is based on second-quarter payroll information and includes demographics, pay structure, pay practices, and current year and projected base pay increases. Respondents matched jobs in their organization to jobs in the survey and provided compensation data for matching employees.
Wage and salary surveys are valuable tools for determining how an organization's pay relates to others in a given area. This data should be used with other reliable data sources such as BLS data and national surveys. WCI can provide additional compensation data for our members as requested.
Policies & Benefits Survey
Having a competitive benefits package as part of your organization’s total rewards program is important for effective recruiting and for retaining talent. Every 2 years, WCI conducts the Southeast Policies & Benefits Survey, co-sponsored by WCI (NC) and by Employers Network (SC).
This survey is a great source for local, regional, and valuable data on a variety of topics, including PTO practices, 401k vesting and matching contributions, premium pay (shift differentials) and employee recognition activities. In addition, current topics like flexible schedules, parental leave, corporate/social responsibility, and wellness initiatives are covered.
