Most IT pros are looking for a new job

I stumbled upon this interesting piece of statistics from a survey and thought to share with everyone.

Most IT pros are looking for a new job, Says survey

60% of IT pros are looking for new jobs, Of the 60% who want a new job,

- 27% are "actively" searching;

- 52% are "somewhat actively" looking,

- 20% say they're "not very actively" hunting for new work,

And the reason why the IT pros are looking for a change:

- 73% cited the desire for better pay as the main reason for their search,

- 40% are looking for better benefits.

- Two-thirds also say they are looking for new jobs because their current positions offered no advancement opportunities.

- 58% say they are looking for new challenges.

- 40% of the job-searching respondents complain that their managers don't respect or value the work they do.

- 40% say they hope to find new work in the same industries they're in now.

*** Happy hunting folks!***
