The results showed that compensation has a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.002 < 0.05. Training also has a positive and significant effect on employee performance with a significance value of 0.005 < 0.05. Simultaneously, compensation and training significantly affect employee performance with an F significance value of 0.000 < 0.05.
