Study: Tech worker confidence drops in May

CNET News.com is covering the results from Hudson's monthly gauge of IT workers' confidence. There seems to be a small increase in what some IT workers will feel may be job cuts in their company along with a decrease in what some feel will be additional hiring in their company.

I know I will be hired on by one of the firms I'm working for next week. Actually I'll be making a bit more than what i had expected, but for me it is more important for me to keep the work schedule that I'm on then the actual pay. I'm giving up a little on the pay side in order to keep 2 jobs. I know it's a balancing act to keep both jobs but the money is worth it in the long run.

I still think in the long run there is an upswing in IT hiring, but like any trend hiring will never go in one direction. The overall trend is still for an increase in hiring and a decrease in cut backs.
