Who is to blame and what to do if an IT person is bored at work. Poll results
Recently, we conducted a survey among IT specialists to find out if they are bored at work and why this is happening. As we thought, most specialists do not know from time to time what to do, and at the same time think about how to avoid it. Many are ready to stay at their current place of work, more than 80% do not want to become heads, but want to develop professionally. Of these, almost 10% see themselves in the field of Big Data and Data Science.
In total, 1898 people answered our questions. Data can be found here and here.
We identified four of the most representative groups: programmers (47%), admins (25.8%), product programmers (those who chose two options: “I develop products” and “I write my code” - 17.4%) and managers (9.7%).

Who misses more? More often than others, programmers are bored, only 14% answered that they won’t get bored at work. Managers are least of all bored - more than a quarter of the representatives of this group always know what to do.

Experienced IT professionals miss less. All the time bored more among people with experience of 1-3 years. “We don’t get bored,” experts with more than 6 years experience say more often.
The most popular causes of boredom. To the question “Why are you bored?” Half of the respondents (48.7%) replied that they have a lot of monotonous work, 25% of IT people have to perform too easy and trivial tasks.
