We're not for everyone

SullivanCotter is the better pick if you need:

  • Bespoke advisory tailored to your organization, not an off-the-shelf number.
  • Executive compensation expertise WageBench does not cover.
  • Custom benchmarking studies scoped to your specific roles and markets.

Bottom line: WageBench for self-serve, transparent market-pay data you pull yourself; SullivanCotter for a bespoke consulting engagement with executive-comp and custom benchmarking depth.
