No. Positions in Monterey and in Washington D.C. have a 15% geographical difference added to them. 

Compensation is based upon the CA or VT structure depending upon the location of where the role needs to occur and which school/department the work is based out of.

Yes. The market accounts for inflation generally and we are basing our ranges on the market data. We are not explicitly tying the rates to inflation trends but they do impact the market data.

Discretionary additions may allow staff to go beyond the percentiles associated with leading. Keep in mind that annual market checks will be completed so those amounts are likely to change over time.

In order to manage any compensation system there needs to be definitions of full time. Given Middlebury’s long history and the addition of the Middlebury Institute, we have three types of work arrangements. The base line definition of full time impacts schedules, CTO accruals and ultimately the calculation of budgets and pay. However, on an individual employee level the differences are not significant because everything is ultimately built on an hourly foundation and is consistent by work group. Let’s start with MIIS, all work relationships there are based on a 7.5 hours day/1950 hours per year full time definition. So if a .5 FTE salary is stated for a MIIS employee it is based on half of the total hours of 1950. In Vermont we have two different definitions, 2080 hours per year (8 hours per day) for areas that have operations beyond normal business hours such as dining, facilities and public safety, and 2015 annually (7.75 hours per day) for administrative areas.

Base compensation is important, we all know that. 

But, there is so much more to it! We should be celebrating the small and the big things because we know that people want and need to feel valued, appreciated and seen in their jobs. We have lots of tools for this—from a quick email or thank you chat, to using our emerging rewards and recognition programs, to investing time, energy and resources into development conversations and professional growth.​
