Press Releases

Executive compensation consultancy Pearl Meyer has named Beth Florin as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). David Swinford, who has been with Pearl Meyer for 24 years and was named president and CEO in 2007, will become chairman.

Pearl Meyer has acquired seven long-standing salary surveys for the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) industries. Formerly managed by D. Dietrich Associates, these surveys provide critical compensation data for companies that need to recruit, hire, and retain specialized staff.

Executive compensation consultancy Pearl Meyer has promoted industry veteran Karen Butcher from principal to the role of managing director.

Survey respondents anticipate one-third of their US workforce will permanently work from home; geographic pay differentials not widely expected.

Survey shows a clear need for policies and processes to address underrepresentation at the senior management level.

Pearl Meyer announced today that the firm has acquired Yaffe & Company, which provides executive compensation, leadership development, governance, physician advisory, and faculty compensation services to the not-for-profit market, specifically for healthcare systems and higher education institutions as well as other types of tax-exempt organizations.

While most recognize that work is undergoing dramatic upheaval—accelerated on two fronts by the pandemic and increasingly urgent calls for diversity in the workplace—how the workforce is managed and compensated has not kept pace. A new report released today from WomenCorporateDirectors Foundation (WCD) and Pearl Meyer warns of the risks associated with this disconnect and offers a roadmap for boards to help organizations transform their approach to human capital management.

Pearl Meyer has announced its new investment partnership with Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: MAIN). 

How the COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately impact director pay is not yet clear, but according to a new survey from executive compensation consultancy Pearl Meyer, at this juncture, more than half (55%) of companies are moving forward with their director pay as planned.
