It's probably just Russia. Software developer salaries in Ukraine[0] are usually in 2k-5k per month range with virtually no tax overhead. Median for the city of Kyiv was 2800 USD per month in 2020.
You probably can get as low as 300 working in public sector, but I'm not sure about that now.

- isbvhodnvemrwvn 6y agoIs it true that you do actually get paid in USD due to UAH being unstable?
- caskstrength 6y agoYes. Absolute majority of software developers in Ukraine work as contractors with rate fixed in USD/EUR.
- Muromec 6y agoYes, all contracts in last 10 and something years I had were denominated in USD. Now what you get -- that depends. It's either USD or EUR wired from abroad directly or equivalent sum in UAH if you have contract with Ukrainian entity (we simply can't have transactions inside the country in currencies other then hryvnia). You can't get your hands on hard cash in USD or EUR either way, but in the first scenario you can at least keep it and choose when to sell.
