Who participates in the surveys?

Each year between January and March, CUES requests participations from credit unions of all assets across the country. The mix of participants varies by year. Your participation is vital to maintaining a large, representative database of current compensation information. Not sure if you’ve participated? Contact us at surveysupport@cues.org or 800.252.2664 to find out.

  • 12-month access to online, dynamic reports – filter by region, asset, etc. to choose your own peer group
  • Access for multiple individuals – CUES will give access to as many individuals as needed; typically, HR and the CEO are granted access, but you determine which individuals should be allowed to run reports
  • Side by side comparisons with your data – if you participate during our participation period, you will see your compensation information alongside your filtered reports for easy comparisons. You can fill out the Executive Compensation Survey and Employee Salary Survey between January 1 and March 31 each year.

An Employee Salary Report shows compensation by percentiles, and it also includes a count of employees in that position and ranges of payment for the position.

CUES asks that you review our position descriptions and look for a 75% match between your position and ours. Titles can be deceiving, so review the full description to look for a match.
