For tech candidates, job switch doesn't pay what it used to; average hikes halve

Salary increases for tech recruits have decreased by more than half in the past year due to a hiring slowdown across the tech industry. Companies are no longer desperate to hire candidates with high-end niche tech skills at any cost. Average salary increases have fallen to 35-40% from 50-100% for roles such as full-stack engineers, data engineers, front-end engineers, SRE/DevOps, data scientists, and back-end engineers. This marks a significant slowdown from a year ago when candidates had multiple competing job offers.
