What are the average Immersive and Gaming salaries for 2023?
As you can see from the results, average salaries have increased by over 5% from 2022 – 2023.
This is great news for existing Immersive and Gaming professionals and bodes well for future talent to come! We wonder what their expectations would be for the upcoming months…
Luckily, we already know!
What salary increases do Immersive & Gaming professionals expect?
The majority of professionals in the Immersive and Gaming industry expect at least a 15% salary increase when moving to a new role, which for a Junior-Mid level professional may not be that much, but for a Senior or Director level professional, this would likely be a considerable amount.
This could suggest that it would take a large salary increase to motivate individuals to move on from their existing roles.
Thanks to data like this, employers are able to manage expectations when it comes to hiring new staff or offering promotions.
Let’s ask the employee’s what they think…
