TAP Network is the definitive community for People and Culture professionals in Canada’s tech sector, providing the data, connections, and insights you need to make strategic decisions, accelerate your effectiveness, and shape the future of work in tech
Participate in Canada’s leading tech sector Salary and Total Rewards Survey, produced in partnership with Mercer.
The survey questionnaire is completed in May and June by members, with results available in early September.
The 2024 survey includes data on 27,448 incumbents in 243 jobs, supplied by over 202 Canadian tech companies, from subsectors such as Software Products and Services, AI, Video Game and Interactive Digital Media, VFX and Animation, Hardware Design and Manufacturing, Clean Tech, Life Sciences and more.
In addition to salary data, our survey provides comprehensive reporting on employment practices such as salary increase budgets, overtime, remote work, vacation and PTO, turnover statistics, perks and more.
TAP Network runs custom pulse surveys to collect tech sector practices data on the issues that matter most to our member companies right now. Survey topics and questions are driven by our members, and we go from data collection to results within 2-3 weeks.
Our members have exclusive access to our complete databank of tech industry pulse surveys on various people and culture related topics. Examples of our recent pulse surveys include topics like salary increase budgets, cost-cutting measures, voluntary turnover, remote work, and navigating economic uncertainty.
This is one of the many ways we’ve built a community where members can share knowledge, learn new information and gain benchmark data to meet their organization’s immediate needs.
As a member, if you’re in need of specific information not found in our survey databank, you can request a new custom pulse survey. We’ll then conduct the survey and provide the full results to participants, and a summary of the results to all in our community. By harnessing the power of community, our members benefit from timely and relevant tech sector practices data to make better decisions.
“TAP means that I’m not alone. It means I don’t have to make these scary HR decisions without a network of people who have either already made them or who have critical information from the outside world that can help me make sure the decisions I make are defensible and best practices throughout the industry.”
Margaux Myers, TAP Network member and Community Ambassador
