“I reached out to the Wilson Group to help us in several key areas regarding our company’s compensation programs. We were expanding our sales team and wanted to ensure that our incentive pay and rewards were in line with the market. Our ability to retain and hire top sales talent was directly tied to this effort. They created a clear and market driven program, provided the sales team with well-defined plans and all during the process provided the right amount of consulting and education.

 

At the same time, we were making the critical transition from private to public company and needed guidance on current regulations and issues. This resulted in a focus on our executive pay and bonus which would be under close review as we took the company through the initial public offering. The Wilson Group worked with the HR team, our CEO and Board to provide a solid structure that could withstand the likely public scrutiny of a new IPO.

 

In short, Tom and his team quickly became an extension of the company. They worked quickly and seamlessly with us on both projects. They were responsive, able to adapt quickly to our needs and questions and were knowledgeable about all things compensation, but more importantly the practical application of these principles to our business. The style is more consultative and collaborative, and we all grew in our knowledge and confidence working with the team.”
