- by back-end developers – minus 75 percent;
- for QA testers – minus 63 percent.
Contrary to the fact that salaries in the IT sector are still still remain one of the highest in Ukraine, the average figure after the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation decreased – if in 2022, employers were willing to pay “IT specialists” a maximum of $3,435, then by the end of 2023, no more than $3,300. However, this applies only to “seniors” or “middles” in IT; an ordinary specialist in Ukraine can count on 50,000 – 60,000 hryvnia.
