What has changed recently in Russian IT?

Question

Career in IT

Hello. Actually the question is: what is changing in Russian IT in connection with the crisis? Or maybe you don't feel it at all? Has it become more difficult to start a career?

Answer 1

Price tags have stabilized, developers are no longer so arrogant (although many are the opposite). In general, there are indeed fewer orders, the number of vacancies has decreased by about half. However, new vacancies appear with enviable regularity, middles, seniors, and juniors are needed, often remotely and with a competitive salary in the country.
Total - not a disaster, it's just worth throwing wet dreams like "work 3 hours a day and get 200k a month" on the far shelf.

Answer 2

Russian IT is dead. Software development is not the most necessary thing, those who wanted to make a new project refuse, those who had projects cut funding. Also, IT companies are finishing off a mass exodus of developers from the ruble zone to remote work for foreign currency, and Russian companies cannot offer market wages. As a result, there are no orders or developers.

Answer 3

In general, Aichi, as it was one of the most stable, has remained who knows how to work well, he still receives well all sorts of Yandex and mail ru, as before, there is a shortage of employees

Answer 4

Over the past few years, habr has deteriorated greatly.

Answer 5

Many international IT companies have moved their projects from Russia. Mainly to Poland, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia. Or completely closed their branches in Russia.

Answer 6

Everything is as before, there is money, there are no people. IT in general in any perhaps the most stable sector.
It has become even less profitable to keep a bunch of juniors instead of a couple of seniors. But I suppose by the end of the summer, fresh outsourcing firms will rake out the juniors and begin to compete with each other in terms of salary. and pull the lower bar closer to Europe.

Answer 7

The market has declined, there are few suitable vacancies, seniors are paid less than juniors in the rest of the world

Answer 8

All is well in IT.
When the 2008 crisis was in full swing, I bought a car. True used.
When the last (current) crisis broke out, I bought a third car (without selling the 2 previous ones, they are different - urban, all-terrain vehicle and high-speed), and this one is no longer used, but straight from the salon. Jeepchik for a little over a million.
I'm not bragging, it's just that everything is good in IT.

Answer 9

Every second felt like a racially correct Indian and dumped it on the upwork.

Answer 10

The volume of orders has decreased, the number of problematic projects has increased, delays or refusals from customers. Large customers, knowing the fall of the market, are furious, and in general there are many lawless people who are ready to force them to work for food or for free.
there is no such critical situation, there are enough people who want to replace the departed, there is simply no work for them
gone, vacancies are not much less

Answer 11

Expensive work has become even more expensive.
The demand for middle jobs has evaporated.
Cheap work - costs in one pore.

Answer 12

My income has increased :)
