IT worker salaries: If you are an IT worker, then your prospects of getting a massive salary hike have improved exponentially. All digitally enabled companies, like Infosys, TCS, Wipro and many others, are looking to hire and what they are willing to do is pay more than handsome salaries for the jobs on offer. IT workers salaries are being given these majestic hikes due to the corona pandemic that caused so many job losses for businesses. However, for the digital companies, the en masse move online by a large part of the population has meant huge demand being built up and to take advantage of that, companies are offering IT workers salaries that are truly eye-ball grabbers. And as demand rises, tech pay packages are increasing in sync.

Needless to say, if it is the best IT worker hiring we are talking about, then it would involve India's tech majors like Infosys, TCS and Wipro. According to a report in Deccan Chronicle, these three companies will provide over 1 lakh jobs in 2021-22.

This trend has been mapped by a company called Indeed India. Its analysis of the pandemic's impact on jobs in India has shown a clear trend of skyrocketing demand for IT workers. Usually, average trends of around 50% are considered huge, but what Indeep India noticed was a humongous 400% rise in demand for IT workers. It is no wonder then that IT worker salaries on offer have ballooned by over 100%. Juxtaposed against a hiring decline of 50 per cent before the peak of the first wave of Covid-19 infections, the true scale of the boost in pay can be imagined.
