Developer salaries to rise?
- by rmbarnes
I have heard people say that the large fall in people graduating with CS based degrees will soon cause developer salaries to rise due to the effects of a smaller supply but ever increasing demand.
Do people really think that this is true?
To my mind there are a couple of reasons this won't happen:
Outsourcing
With 'DIY' style languages like PHP and the attitudes of many of the communities behind these languages becoming ever more popular (e.g. the learn yourself, don't need to go to university way of thinking) not many employers will care if developers have degrees in CS or not.
