This year's #Wanted and #Misunderstood Developer Survey 2024, is organized into five distinct chapters. Here we introduce Chapter 1. Each chapter comes in two versions: One collects and analyzes the views of developers, focusing on their preferences and insights related to current technology trends and workplace practices. The second one captures the perspectives of HR experts and C-level managers, concentrating on their strategies and challenges in managing tech talent. We compare key findings across these versions.
This year's DevReport 2024, provides a comprehensive exploration of the tech industry's current state. The full report compiles insights from both the tech community and HR professionals to illuminate key trends and foster a closer alignment between developers and businesses, ultimately strengthening our tech ecosystem. It covers vital areas such as work-life balance, recruitment practices, sustainability, mental health, career advancement, and inclusivity, integrating developer experiences with HR strategies to promote informed, sustainable growth in the industry.
