I'd be interested to know too, they are based in Poland so I suspect pay Polish salaries [0]. The thing is an English speaker in Poland could just as easily get a remote job for a company in London and get double the salary.
When you open up to remote people, do you have to put the salaries up to reflect this?
[0] Glass door shows software engineer salaries in Poland are around zt6000/mo or £1200/mo.
- gedrap 12y agoYeah £1200/mo sounds like a reasonable middle level developer salary in Eastern Europe (I am from Lithuania). It's a good point about English speakers. I think it has to do with network and comfort zone. When you are 25 and have spent all your life in your home country, you usually have some kind of network, some reputation. Makes it easier, and comfortable. While getting a client from the States or UK is something unfamiliar, out of comfort zone, maybe some tried and got disappointed by oDesk/elance etc (I find their application process totally soul crushing, when you might spend ~30mins to write a nice customized proposal and hear nothing back).
- lgieron 12y agoI am based in Poland (working remotely for US-based company though). I'd say the 6k zl is a bit low, in big cities an experienced dev can get 2x times that, or more (and outliers like Google pay much much more).
