Public warehousing is paying the top salaries right now. If an executive is looking to relocate to a top-paying locale, then he or she should move to New York state, according to our survey. Gap As has held true in previous surveys, men still outpaced women in terms of salary. One small positive note for women this year was the amount of salary increase reported. Women reported that they received a 6.5-percent wage hike on average vs. 6.4 percent for men.
Men continue to outearn women in the logistics field.
It should be noted that other factors helped account for the gender gap in pay and indicated why men still brought home bigger paychecks than women did. The men who responded to our survey had 17.3 years of distribution experience vs. 13.1 years for women. In fact, 13.0 percent of the male respondents had spent 30 years or more in the field, while only 1.3 percent of the women in the survey matched that experience level. Men also supervised departments of 13 workers, while women only oversaw seven-member staffs on average. Some 11.5 percent of men surveyed held the title of vice president and general manager compared with 2.6 percent of women.
