«Sometimes it seems to me that children are playing… Well, how can you offer a lady a salary of $700 and count on success? But if a child wrote it, then yes, for her it is a big amount, for sure. Probably even huge! And also stuff a set for the backend, write that there must be 4+ years of experience. But every front should have a backend, right? Why did they just come up with those full-stacks? And why separate them in general? Well, write the code for yourself, and that’s it, don’t make a fuss. And why pay for it at all? You like it — then enjoy it and don’t spoil the pleasure with money!», — wrote the developer and published a screenshot of the vacancy description.
His post is being actively discussed by experts.
«The trend is obvious: working for a plate of soup is becoming closer,» notes CEO Roman Kolomiets.
«Oh, these arbitrageurs, it’s a billion-trillion dollar field, and they don’t value the front end,» said AI & Content Creator Serhiy S.
«This is just the beginning of the end of Ukrainian IT,» suggests Android Developer Oleksandr Grebenko.
«Or maybe the problem is in finance? IT was making a great splash and everyone was delighted, it was just time to respond. By the way, they do the same with real estate,» Python Developer Vitaly Maimeskul thinks. In his opinion, AI already writes code quite well, that is, it already needs operators to set prompts, and to understand architectures. «And I don’t think it really matters in which language to do it. Which one is more correct for certain tasks,» he believes.
Vyacheslav Kondrashov, 3D Generalist, says that «Ukrainian game development has been at such a low point for a long time.» «Experienced specialists on the salary of an ATB cashier,» he notes.
«It’s a Ukrainian state-owned company. State-owned companies pay 20 times less. If developers are willing to work for that kind of money, that’s their business. Although my opinion is that four years of experience should cost at least 80,000, and not 30,000 for sure,» said developer Ihor M.
UPD. After the publication of the material, the Admitad press service contacted the editorial office and reported that «this vacancy has no relation to Admitad Ukraine and was posted from a fake account on robota.ua.» The company has already contacted the platform to find out how this became possible and to have the false information removed.
«We also note that all our vacancies are posted exclusively by the Mitgo group of companies — here is a link to our official account on rabota.ua: Mitgo — all current vacancies. This can be easily verified, because we are looking for specialists for various companies of the group. As soon as we receive an official response from rabota.ua, we will be able to provide you with additional comments on the situation,» the company noted.
UPD.2. The robota.ua press service also responded to dev.ua’s request:
«robota.ua responded promptly and suspended the company’s activities for a thorough investigation. The user who posted this vacancy on behalf of Admitad Ukraine used real data of a legal entity to create a fake vacancy. We have already communicated with representatives of Admitad Ukraine and blocked this user. The safety of our users is a priority for us. Our team is constantly working on strengthening security measures and implementing new technological solutions for verification.
