2011 – Twelfth Annual Salary Survey

WELCOME TO Contract Pharma’s Twelfth Annual Salary Survey! This year’s results are derived from nearly 700 respondents from our readership about employment attitudes, responsibilities, education, and their 2010 salaries.

For comparison’s sake, we’ve included last year’s survey results with this year’s report; the pages with “2010 RESULTS” on them are from the previous survey. The winner of our Salary Survey iPad drawing is Harch Ooi of Seattle Genetics!
