Employment Picture for IT Professionals is Not Improving

May 4th, 2012
A net gain of 6,600 seasonally adjusted IT jobs in April only 20,600 jobs added in the last 3 months more job seekers have stopped looking for jobs with the participation percentage being the lowest it has been since 1980 not a recipe for bright short term future

Janco has found that market for IT Professionals continues to struggle. IT reflects the malaise of the US economy and added only 6,600 jobs in April while the total job market increased by only 115,000 which is well below the number of new jobs needed to drive a strong recovery. In addition, the number of individuals leaving the job market continues to increase with a participation rate falling to 63.6% -- the lowest it has been since 1980. In California the overall unemployment number is 11% and Nevada tops state unemployment at 12%. Janco has found that national unemployment rates have a direct impact on the confidence and ability of CIOs to implement new initiatives and expand their staffs.

Salaries inch up while work increases

April 28th, 2012
The bad news is that tech professionals are working hard for every penny they bring home -- so hard that in many cases the extra workload outweighs the small boost in pay.

For the second year in a row, salaries and total compensation for IT professionals have inched up. According to Janco's and Computerworld's Salary Survey 2012, average salaries increased modestly this year.

Hiring is also up, with 87 percent of hiring managers who responded to the survey saying that they expect IT staff head count to increase in the next 12 months or remain the same. Only 25 percent of the total respondents reported hiring freezes, compared with 39 percent last year. And other negative indicators, such as salary freezes, budget cuts and layoffs, are all in retreat.



IT, it seems, is finally on the road to recovery. Workers even seem to feel better about the economy: Only 19 percent listed it as a challenge in the latest survey, compared to 28 percent the prior year.

BYOD Policy meets CIO's compliance and security requirements

April 25th, 2012
BYOD has taken off leaving many CIOs struggling to find the right technologies to cope with the radical changes to compliance and security models that BYOD entails. In the rush, many CIOs have not managed to update their policies to reflect BYOD issues, which may mean advising users of their new responsibilities and support limitations, as well as security and privacy measures.

The BYOD policy template does just that.

BYOD include consumer smartphones and tablets which are making their way into your organization. Going mobile makes employees happier and more productive, but its also risky. How can you say 'yes' to a BYOD choice and still safeguard your corporate data, shield your network from mobile threats, and maintain policy compliance?

Outsourcing to Strip More Job From IT and Finance

April 9th, 2012
Corporations in the U.S. and Europe will move an additional 750,000 jobs in IT, finance and other business services to India and other low-cost countries by 2016, according to a new report.

The study notes that levels of additional offshoring in these areas will begin to decline by 2014, and in the next eight to 10 years, the flow of jobs offshore is likely to cease, as companies simply run out of business services jobs suitable for moving to low-cost countries.

By 2016, a total of 2.3 million jobs in finance, IT, procurement and human resources will have moved offshore. This represents about a third of all jobs in these areas. India is by far the most popular destination, with nearly 40 percent of the jobs that are sent offshore headed there.



The report also said that additional offshoring levels in business services, which are currently at around 150,000 new jobs each year, leveling off or declining after 2014. The research also found that of the 5.1 million business services jobs remaining onshore at U.S. and European companies in 2012, only about 1.8 million have the potential to be transferred offshore, with 750,000 of those moving by 2016. So by the end of the next eight to 10 years, the traditional model of lifting and shifting work out of Western economies into low-cost regions will cease to be a major factor behind business services job losses in the United States and Europe.
