EANE Peer: Salary Benchmarking Data for New England Employers

You need to know what a job pays in your market, usually right away. A posting is going up this week, a counteroffer is on your desk, or next year’s raise budget is due. Survey data published once a year can’t tell you what a role pays this month.

EANE Peer is a self-service salary benchmarking tool, powered by Payscale Peer, that gives New England employers real-time compensation data for about 5,000 benchmark positions across every industry, department, and level. The data comes from EANE member organizations and Payscale’s client network, which passed 10.2 million employee records from more than 4,500 organizations in June 2026, according to Payscale.

What you can do with EANE Peer

• Price a job in minutes. Look up the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles for a role in your area and industry.
• Compare yourself to a defined peer group. Choose the organizations that look like you, by industry, size, or location, and see how your pay compares. Competitor comparisons require five or more organizations, so no single employer’s data can be identified.
• Build pay ranges you can post. Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, and Connecticut now require pay ranges in job postings, and a posted range has to be a good-faith estimate of what you’ll pay. Current market data makes that estimate defensible, including when current employees compare the range with their own pay. We explain the Massachusetts rules in pay transparency in Massachusetts.
• Download what you need. Unlimited reports in PDF or Excel for your leadership team, your board, or your budget model.

When you need more than data

Once you know what the market pays, our compensation consultants can help you decide what to pay. They can turn EANE Peer data into a pay structure through Compensation Plan Design, check internal fairness with a pay equity audit, or show employees the full value of their pay with total compensation statements. If you’re planning next year’s structure now, is your salary structure ready for 2027? walks through the decisions.
