Abstract

Although the companies know the factors that motivate software developers to stay at their current company, the employer change rate is still too high. As this is a serious problem for employers, we decided to explore and investigate more research into the motivations for developers to stay with their current company. We conducted a study with professional software developers to find detailed information about factors which change the mind and perception of developers when it comes to the company they currently work for. According to our results, the most important factor for developers is Work/Life balance. Moreover, additional differences can be found, when we compare younger and older or inferior and superior employees regarding the position within a company. Finally, we can see that numbers exclusively are not always good information to orientate on.
