How’s the Job Market? Let’s Find Out Together. Every year, I run a salary survey to help folks have better discussions with their managers about salaries, benefits, and career progression. This year, the survey is for unemployed folks, too! The first question has a new option for "Unemployed (and looking)." Note that if you're retired, thanks, but you can skip this survey. Congrats on the retirement though! Take the survey now here. https://www.brentozar.com/archive/2025/12/hows-the-job-market-lets-find-out-together/
