Abstract: The purpose of the current study is to identify key contributors, recent dynamics, domains, and advocates for future study directions in the field of Information Technology professionals in the context of ageism, personal and social well-being. In the study, a bibliometric technique is employed to assess the global scientific output of research on IT professionals and to investigate the status and developments in this sector from 1998 to mid-2022. For quantitative and qualitative assessments of publication outputs and author contributions, the VOSviewer programme was utilised. To find existing research on this topic, the publication utilised bibliometric analysis on a sample of 294 papers collected from the Scopus database. It was discovered that the primary focus of critical study in this field is on job satisfaction, employee engagement, health issues, software development, and retention. There are implications for research and IT management. Thus, there is a need for future research on the role of the specific characteristics of embeddedness, such as diversity, ageism, mixed job demands, turnover, and turnaway, among IT Professionals.
