I have done embedded software development for quite sometime, before I came to graduate school. Thus, I am interested in trends and concerns in this area. In a recent Embedded Muse newsletter, Jack Ganssle did a survey mainly for embedded software developers across the world. In this survey, people were asked about their salaries, ages, carrier happiness, and other comments.
The results are interesting and sometimes surprising. Non-embedded developers do better than firmware people; in the USA the average age going up; and those who work a lot of overtime are generally happier than those who don’t. The general comments asked are also interesting: almost everyone has concerns and worries about off-shoring and similar trends. The survey can be found here.
