skills warranted pay increases among technology professionals across the country with hospitality, Internet, manufacturing, consumer products and banking seeing the most industry-specific increases, according to the annual salary survey by Dice. Overall technology salaries in the US were essentially flat year-over-year (-1%), at $92,081 annually from $93,328^ in 2015, with some areas across the country and specific skills areas seeing increases. 36% Merit raise 24% Changed employers 10% Internal promotion 8% Cost of living Mandated 6% company-wide increase Highly-skilled technology professionals remain in the most demand, especially those candidates proficient in the technologies needed to support industry transformation and growth.

The migration from hardware-based storage to cloud storage¹ and the explosion of IoT technologies connecting billions of devices (Gartner) are creating a demand for skills to support these transitions and growth. When industries experience transformation at this level, it creates skills demand and

increased salaries.

While 67 percent of tech pros remain confident they could find a favorable new position, in 2017, finding Dice Tech Salary Survey 5 Source: http://www.doksinet a relevant position for their skillsets is the biggest concern (15%), followed by keeping their skills up to date (14%) and

position elimination (10%), all of which underscore the increasing need for professionals to continue skills development and training and to understand the value of each skills area. Sixty-one percent of tech pros received a salary increase from a year ago and 9 percent reported a decrease. Increased compensation is the most common motivator employers provided to tech pros in 2016 (18%), followed by flexible work location and ability to telecommute (14%) and more interesting and challenging assignments (12%).

months, many employers have seen salaries for technology professionals with specialized skills (most notably in database and networking technology) creep upwards. There’s a straightforward explanation for that: the database and networking sectors are undergoing major disruption, requiring professionals with the right mix of skills and experience to wrangle large, often mission-critical systems. Among these disruptions: the general transition from on-premises to the cloud, as well as the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies connecting millions of devices into sprawling networks. As ranked by Dice’s Salary Survey, the technology resulting in the highest pay for tech pros is HANA, the high-performance analytical database application. Coming in second is MapReduce, a model and implementation for processing Big Data sets. At third is Cloud Foundry, a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for TOP-PAYING SKILLS 1 2 3 4 5 HANA MapReduce Cloud Foundry HBase Omnigraffle 6 7 8 9

10 Cassandra Apache Kafka SOA Ansible Jetty application development. HBase (an open-source distributed database) and Omnigraffle (a digital illustration app) round out the top five. Cassandra (a distributed database management system), Apache Kafka (a stream-processing platform), SOA (Service Oriented Architecture), Ansible (an opensource automation engine), and Jetty (a web server) rounded out the top ten. While HANA first appeared on this list in 2015, Cloud Foundry, Apache Kafka and Ansible are making debut appearances this year. Networking and database technologies such as Compellent, Drupal, JCL, FCoE, Nimble, Hbase, Pure Storage, and T1 or T3, along with the Camtasia videoediting suite and the Open VMS operating system, all supported skills that saw the biggest salary increases over 2015. Employers also recognize the need to keep highly specialized talent onboard through regular salary bumps; some 61 percent of tech pros reported their pay increasing from a year ago, while only

9 percent said they suffered a decrease. Moreover, employers are hitting a “sweet spot” when it comes to salaries, with 54 percent of surveyed tech pros saying they were satisfied with their compensation (up 1 point from 2015). This Year’s Big Perk: Education Whatever the economic conditions of the moment, employers know that the battle for specialized talent is always a fierce one. If you run a smaller firm in a tech hub Dice Tech Salary Survey 9 Source: http://www.doksinet RETAINING TALENT The employer willing to offer educational opportunities is one with a higher likelihood of retaining talent that wants to stay on the cutting edge of the industry. Reimbursement for taking classes Training with hired instructors Subscriptions to E-learning institutions CANDIDATE CONCERNS 15% Finding a good fit for skill-set such as New York City or San Francisco, your job isn’t just about securing the best talent; it’s also about making sure your existing employees aren’t

enticed away by a sweeter offer at a larger firm. Even big companies aren’t immune from attrition; when a particular tech category explodes in popularity and funding, such as self-driving cars, rival firms will literally spare no expense in order to land the best of what is sometimes a very small pool of tech pros with the right knowledge. When it comes to those pros in particularly “hot” segments such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and mobile experiences, effective hiring and retaining is about the right combination of salary and perks. The term “perks” can encompass many things: flexible hours, a perpetual stock of good food in the office kitchen, remote-work options, and so on. But in the Salary Survey, some 15 percent worried over finding an appropriate position for their skill-set; another 14 percent of tech pros said they were concerned about 14% Keeping skills up do date 10% Potential job elimination keeping their skills up to date; and 10 percent

voiced fears of potential job elimination. In other words, the employer willing to offer educational opportunities is one with a higher likelihood of retaining talent that wants to stay on the cutting edge of the industry. “Educational opportunities” can take many forms. Some companies are willing to give employees cash to take classes; others bring the learning in-house, either by hiring instructors or purchasing courses from e-learning institutions. (For those interested in online instruction, Dice.com offers a Skills Center with related courses by Udemy.) For employers, educating employees is a win-win situation. Those professionals are not only happier, but can use their skills to advance the company’s overall strategy. During job interviews and onboarding, candidates will likely respond positively to a narrative that positions the company as a source of continual self-improvement.

Dice Tech Salary Survey 13 Source: http://www.doksinet Dice Salary Survey Methodology The 2016 Dice Salary Survey was administered online by Dice.com, with 12,907 employed

technology professionals responding between October 26, 2016 and January 24, 2017. Respondents were invited to participate in the survey in one of two ways: 1) via an email invitation to Dice.com’s registered (“searchable”) database members; 2) through a notification on the Dice.com home page and/or via “pop-up” invitations The latter method was used only to improve response rates for a small number of respondent types. A cookie methodology was used to ensure that there was no duplication of responses between or within the various sample groups, and duplicate responses from a single email address were removed. The Dice Salary Survey was adjusted for inflation in 2013 for technology professionals earning salaries of $350,000 and above were not automatically eliminated from the survey if they met other criteria. Due to a high number of outliers in the data, the 2015 salary number was revised to better reflect a change in outlier methodology and an adjusted number has been

reported this year. ^ About Dice Technology powers companies.
