A new study offers the first large-scale, data-driven examination of tech workers’ values across Europe. The findings reveal that while developers tend to be highly individualistic, open to change, and driven by universalist ideals, non-developers often align more closely with other occupational elites like managers and professionals. This challenges the notion of a unified “tech elite” and highlights the importance of internal diversity in shaping the ethics and impact of the tech industry.
