California Compensation survey

CalChamber has partnered with Gallagher to create the 2025 California Compensation Survey and online tool, built only from California employers and roles.

1. Statewide PDF Summary

A static, high-level report that covers the entire state of California.

• Provides an overall snapshot of market pay levels and trends across key job families
• Highlights statewide ranges and median data so you can quickly see where your pay generally sits in the market
• Ideal for leadership discussions or a quick reference when you do not need custom cuts or filtering

Note: The PDF summary is not customizable and does not drill into specific organizations, job titles, locations or ZIP codes. For that level of detail, you can upgrade to the online tool.
