IT Perks are Growing Despite a Bad Economy
IT staffing companies and IT consultants are seeing a trend that feels incongruous in today’s job market: more perks at tech companies. In an economy with unemployment rates at an uncomfortably high amount, pay cuts everywhere, and people being forced to double-up on job responsibilities, the information technology industry is booming and working hard to keep the supply of IT contractors as high as the supply of IT jobs. IT recruiting agencies are likely to be familiar with Google and Yahoo as examples of the elaborate perks offered to entice IT professionals. A deluge of free services make IT staffing firms working with Google and Yahoo more like sirens than IT recruiters.
Of course, IT staffing companies only submit resumes to companies like Google and Yahoo for candidates that are ready to commit a larger portion than 40 hours of their week. IT managers at tech companies may be offering amazing benefits and perks, but they are also offering incredibly demanding jobs for IT headhunters to fill.
