Developer Salary in 2024
Despite layoffs at the beginning of the year, even today. After the start of the pandemic in 2020, companies in US, Europe, LATAM, EMEA or other geos had been recruiting on an almost daily basis top software engineers. Indeed, according to the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics’ reports, at least by 2032, the software field will experience a 26% increase, compared to the national average. Unsurprisingly, this strong demand has proven to outpace the global amount of candidates with the right software engineering skills.
With market volatility continuing, growth of software engineer salaries in North America slowed to .1% year-over-year, a fraction of the tech national average of 2% for all tech workers.
On the other hand, the extremely low rate of unemployment among software engineers demonstrates that this industry will continue to develop.
