Salary for those in Corp Communications

Would anyone have any information on the comp. packages for someone doing a leadership program in corporate communications? Elsewhere on WSO, there are some great stats on base incomes for those in the finance/corp strat or dev department (listed below to use as reference); was wondering how figures in communications would compare. Thanks!

Figures for those in corp dev. (taken courtesy of harvardgrad08's insanely detailed forum on corporate dev. positions)

  • C-Level Executives (top 20 or so people at the company): total comp $5M+/year
  • VPs: total comp ~$2-5M/year (at least 4-5 years but some cap out here)
  • General Managers/Managing Directors: ~$500K-$2M/year (at least 2-3 yrs but some cap out here)
  • Sr. Director/Director: ~$300-500K/year (3-7 yrs)

Divide all those by 3-4.
