IT Workplace
Workplaces in IT industry are much diversified. IT career opportunities are
constantly offered with both large and small firms in all industries and
sectors. According to U.S. Department of Labors, the majority of IT jobs are
found in establishments that employ 50 or more workers.
Many small establishments in the industry are startup firms that hope to
capitalize on a market niche. In fact, the average establishment in IT is
relatively small; approximately 80 percent of establishments employed fewer than
10 workers. Working for small start-ups had made many IT professionals a fortune
in the past years. However, in current market conditions, you¡¯d better work with
sizeable established firms.
Unionization is rare in IT industry; fewer than 2 percent of all workers are
union members or are covered by union contracts, compared with 14.9 percent of
workers throughout all industries.
