AI MODIFIEDTVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents IT professionals rate job prospects significantly worse – what this means for you.
You may have noticed it yourself: The IT industry, long considered a self-running job market, is sending different signals right now. A survey of IT professionals now shows just how significant the shift in sentiment really is – and the numbers are clear.
Only 37 percent of IT professionals rate their job prospects as good. In 2021, it was still 78 percent – more than double within just a few years. What began as a slight darkening has now become a clear turning point.
At the same time, respondents still expect more in salary. How does that fit together? Let's look at the data closely.
The numbers in detail
According to Golem.de, the survey is based on a poll of IT professionals. The share of those who rate their job prospects as good has fallen from 78 percent in 2021 to 37 percent – a decline of 41 percentage points in less than five years.
Still expecting more salary
The second finding is striking: Despite the worse perception of job prospects, respondents expect higher salaries. Golem.de highlights this as one of the central results of the survey. Both trends – declining confidence in switching opportunities and growing salary demands – thus stand side by side.
What remains?
The message is clear: Confidence among IT professionals has visibly declined, while at the same time their own financial demands are not automatically being scaled back. Anyone currently navigating the market – whether as an applicant, someone looking to switch jobs, or in salary negotiations – is getting a more honest self-assessment than just a few years ago.
Conclusion
The IT industry is no longer a self-running job market. A 37 percent positive view of job prospects is a warning signal – but no reason to panic. Those who sharpen their qualifications, stay visible, and negotiate realistically on salary still hold good cards.
