do you expect to see in 2024?

“While neither the employed nor their employers have the upper hand in the 2023 job market, 2024 will see job seekers and hiring managers coming to a compromise on what is most important in an employment agreement. Companies cutting costs & corners with tech talent will lose out, and candidates may need to consider a more hybrid (versus fully remote) work environment.”

Kelsey Prisby

Vice President

“Boston companies in 2024 will focus on bringing in mid-level workers that don’t have 100% of the skills they’re looking for but are willing to grow their skillset and come in at a lower salary. By hiring these junior workers earlier in their career, businesses can build loyalty and keep employees engaged as they continue to grow their skillset.”

Shane Tomlinson

Executive Director

“Tech workers in 2024 need to have an honest assessment of the skills they bring to the job market. Truly “A-level” talent still have the opportunity to essentially name their price and work environment, but for everyone else, candidates can’t set unrealistic expectations or risk missing out on otherwise quality opportunities.”
