As the world struggles to contain a rapidly-spreading virus that has ravaged the global economy, reordered everyday life for large parts of the population, and inflicted a heavy death toll, electrical and electronics engineers have had to tolerate more uncertainty than they may be used to.
Despite the global economic collapse caused by the coronavirus, most engineers are not seeing major changes in their compensation. According to a survey by Microwaves & RF and Endeavor’s Design Engineering Group, most of the highly-skilled workers in engineering are as encouraged as ever about their jobs. The results also revealed that, unlike large swathes of the workforce, engineers are mostly feeling confident about their future prospects for compensation.
