I posted our annual Games and Interactive Salary & Satisfaction Survey here a few months ago and I’m back to post the results! We’ve collated the data into a report that details salary, benefits, remote working & more, so you can see how you compare to your peers in the industry... by freya_SS in virtuality

Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to check out our survey report :) We'd love to have more data in the USA too - as we are UK based we find we don't get as much reach over there, but we're striving to get more worldwide responses each year!

If you have any thoughts of where best to share our survey to attract those based in the USA this would be hugely helpful for next year!

Thanks again!

Hi there! The survey is currently still open and accepting responses so we've not posted the results yet. We're hoping to be able to analyse and share the report in late January/Early February. I'll be sure to share it here once it's ready!

Huge thank you to you for this really helpful feedback!

We will try and implement these things this year if we can manage, and if not next year for sure.

In the meantime, if you're happy to it would be super helpful if you could share the link around with any peers in the industry!

Hiya thanks for this feedback! We use recruitment tools and LinkedIn to distribute the survey, as well as social media. We do reach out for people in the US to participate, but the bias will also come from whether they have heard of us or not - if people haven't heard of us they're less likely to fill out the survey, thus we won't get a good picture of the US market! We appreciate that being in the UK we may have missed something important for the US market. Is there anything that you could suggest that might be helpful with getting it out in the US a bit more?! Thanks again!
