Case Study: Slimmer AI achieves fair, transparent compensation benchmarking with Figures

Promoting fair pay and transparency at Slimmer AI

Slimmer AI, a Netherlands-based artificial intelligence studio, faced the challenge of establishing a fair and transparent compensation structure for its employees. The company's People Lead, Elsa Berg, struggled with the time-consuming and often inaccurate process of manually benchmarking salaries using disparate sources. This made it difficult to define "fair pay" and confidently justify compensation decisions to a team that had its own insights into market rates.

The company implemented Figures to gain access to reliable, up-to-date salary data. This solution provided accurate benchmarks, saving dozens of hours previously spent on manual research. The data confirmed that most salaries were on target and enabled efficient bi-annual reviews. Figures' dashboard also simplified the process of identifying and correcting outlying salaries and provided the evidence needed to support transparent conversations with employees about pay.
