Stay informed amid constant evolution

The technology industry—software, technology services, hardware, or semiconductors—is not immune to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis. Disruption can come in many forms, with a myriad of developments creating opportunities and positive challenges in the industry:

increased demand for automation and remote work solutions
surges in online buying and user engagement
new applications and equipment
a predisposition to virtual/remote employee engagement

What does all this mean for your organization? You need up-to-date information to keep your talent strategy current and elevate your overall employee experience. Mercer is here to help.

Evaluating your pay strategy
