RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question

[Fuller, Stuart]

Title: OT: Research Question

My $0.02   1. Salary   2. Environment - I live in semi-rural Montana and that is a bonus.  I drive 10 miles to work and it takes 13 minutes.  Also in 15 minutes I can be fishing in a blue ribbon trout stream or skiing at our local area.   3. Management - The pointy hair boss factor and politics is high around here but my immediate sups shield me fairly well and are good to work for.   4. "Cool Toys" - In my position I get to play with a lot of new technology that actually solves problems.  (e.g. ESX Server, AD, Windows 2003, MOM, etc...)   5. Coworkers   -Stuart   From: joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2004 1:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question Hmm   Salary (being paid is a way of being told job well done) Coworkers (getting paid a lot doesn't help much if you have sucky co-workers) Management (Bad management can make no amount of money enough after a while) Influence (hard to state this one, basically having input into what is being done and knowing it will be considered)     joe   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DL.ActiveDirectory Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2004 2:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question Yes, but having live data from people I 'know' (so to speak) makes this a much more personal assignment, and one that I am more likely to get a good grade on since I have a kindred feeling for the research data. I am using ALL the answers I get, as each one adds a little more to the over all picture. Plus, this isn't the only list this got posted on. ;)   Mitch -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Posted At: Thursday, May 13, 2004 12:44 PM Posted To: ~AD Discussion~ Conversation: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question   lol.   Mitch, you probably want to >insert favorite search engine< for surveys.  Places like Monster.com, Yahoo.com, Dice.com, etc all keep that kind of information as well for marketing purposes.  They may share. I'm sure the bureau of labor and statistics would keep such information as well.  Not to mention psychological websites, those related to workplace issues (OSHA?) and industry magazines that also conduct such salary and well-being surveys.   Happy hunting.   Al   From: Zach Huseby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2004 12:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question the 2nd and the 18th of each month.       From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DL.ActiveDirectory Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2004 10:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Research Question Hello, I am doing research for a college project, and I would appreciate any feedback I can get on the following question: As an IT professional, what factors in your employment make a difference to you?  Why?
