ITX’s Compensation Philosophy

Equality in compensation has been our practice since ITX started, in 1997.

ITX believes that market-based pay ensures fair and equitable compensation for our worldwide team members and pay that is based on the market, not on who has the best negotiation skills. At ITX, you’ll never discover that someone in the same job with the same experience makes more than you, or that there are pay gaps based on race, gender, disability, or age.

How do our team members experience market-based pay at ITX? We gather market data to benchmark each position in our candidates’ and team members’ locations and use these benchmarks for candidate offers and to perform regular compensation reviews for our team members. You’ll never have to worry about asking for a pay raise again. At least once a year ITX automatically adjusts pay when the benchmark is higher than our team member’s compensation.

In Rochester, N.Y., home to ITX’s headquarters, the pay range for a Product Owner role is $88,000 to $130,000, depending on experience, specific skills and certifications, and education. Based on your location in the United States if you are in a place where the market for your role is higher or lower, this pay range could be 10% lower or 4% higher than the Rochester, N.Y. market.

ITX has team members in many countries, and we use the same methodology for determining pay for all our teammates. For candidates outside of the United States, we use local market data to determine the benchmark range for the role.

Do you have questions about ITX’s compensation practices? Let us know! We’re proud of how we do compensation at ITX and welcome the opportunity to share more.
