Private Equity Compensation Survey

October 11, 2009

You are invited to participate in Job Search Digest’s annual Private Equity and Venture Capital Compensation Survey, which we are conducting to provide information to evaluate compensation, negotiate better job offers, and benchmark firm compensation practices.

Last year hundreds of respondents from around the world completed the survey. We had participation from firms both large and small such as: Credit Suisse, Labrador Ventures, Intel Capital, Mayfield, New Enterprise Associates, and SoftBank Capital. The survey addresses issues such as the compensation earned by professionals and their work satisfaction.

A Few of Last Year’s Findings:

  • Many respondents said they were concerned about their firm’s ability to raise the next fund. An anemic IPO market makes it harder to present investors with a clear path to a successful exit.
  • It turns out that size does matter. Funds in the mid range raised the bar when it comes to private equity compensation.
  • Working hard does pay off. An interesting finding in looking at private equity work and personal life balance is that there is a direct correlation between hours worked and total compensation earned.
