Unhappy IT workers; now you can view your managed stock portfolio anywhere — granted you have an iPhone, and can get a connection and …

Unhappy in IT New York technology professionals are more dissatisfied with their payouts than colleagues in the rest of the country, according to the 2009-2010 annual salary survey published by Dice.com, a leading career site for technology professionals. In contrast to the high salaries and bonuses garnered by much of the Wall Street elite, New York IT professionals reported that their pay had remained flat over the last year, with the average salary being $86,710. Though not surprisingly, tech workers in the New York finance and banking sector earned the highest average salary — $106,344. Still, 42% of New York technology professionals reported being dissatisfied with their compensation, compared with the 29% of Washington techs who reported being dissatisfied. The online salary survey of 16,908 registered Dice job seekers and visitors between Aug. 24 and Nov. 12 included 1,476 New York-based technology professionals. Non-compensation-related incentives aren’t filling the void. Only 13% are getting flexible work hours and 20% are being offered more interesting or challenging assignments. Close to half the respondents, 48%, reported that their employers are doing nothing to keep them motivated. For more information visit Dice Holdings Inc. online.
