Benefits Of Working In IT (Missing In Action)

The joke here is that the pie chart shows the "Benefits of working in IT in 2025" with a legend listing Salary, Wellness, Stable mental health, and Confidence for your future... but none of the colors in the legend actually appear in the chart. Classic bait-and-switch that hits too close to home.

Seven years in the industry and I've seen enough "wellness programs" that consist of a single yoga session and free pizza to know this isn't far from reality. The chart is basically saying "here are all the benefits you were promised" while showing completely different data—just like how your job description never matches what you actually do.

Pro tip: The real benefits of IT are unlimited coffee and the ability to blame everything on "network issues."
