Uncertainty clouds the U.S. job market, and to an extent the results of the 2014 Salary Survey. How so? Overall, 73% of respondents saw an increase in earnings during 2013 over 2012. And the average total compensation increase was 3.69%. Yet the average total compensation for 2013 was $109,509, down ever so slightly from the $110,213 reported in the 2013 survey. The incongruity may be attributable to the fact that a large majority of respondents answering this year's survey are different than the participants who completed last year's survey. The portion of respondents who took the survey both years was not calculated.
