Now open: InformationWeek’s annual IT salary survey

InformationWeek's annual salary survey is now open. Our flagship research initiative has gathered career and workplace insights for CIOs for more than two decades.

Last year, our salary survey highlighted remarkable resilience across IT and technology professionals — showing that even amid economic headwinds and declining compensation, 81% remained confident in their job security, with many looking to AI and upskilling as a path for growth.

As IT and technology leaders continue to adapt to AI integration, shifting budgets and evolving workforce dynamics, we are again looking to capture the current reality of technology compensation and career trajectories. Your perspective is critical in helping us build an accurate, comprehensive benchmark for the industry.

We would be grateful if you could take about 15 minutes to share your insights. Your responses will remain completely confidential and be reported only in aggregate. Those who complete the survey will also be eligible to enter a drawing for a $100 gift card.
