Executive People Analytics
Understand career progression, promotion velocity, workforce movement and organizational health signals.
Median and average months at level before promotion, by transition
Median time before promotion ranges from 26.0 months (L5 → L6) to 28.2 months (L4 → L5).
Longer time at a level is not inherently negative; it may reflect broader role scope at senior levels.
