There were initial plans to limit their legality to very specific cases. Fortunately, the business approach won, and it has been confirmed that the government is not planning to introduce any changes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is one of the key differentiators of the Polish IT market: the flexibility of employment and relatively low employment costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Schema Markup in JSON-LD -->\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Table\",\n  \"about\": \"Comparison of B2B vs Employment Contract IT Salaries in Poland in 2025\",\n  \"name\": \"Median Monthly IT Salaries in Poland 2025: B2B vs Employment Contract\",\n  \"description\": \"A table comparing B2B and employment contract (UoP) median IT salaries in Poland in 2025 by experience level.\",\n  \"url\": \"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/it-salaries-in-poland-2025\/\"\n}\n<\/script>\n\n<table style=\"width:100%\">\n    <caption>Median Monthly IT Salaries in Poland in 2025 (EUR equivalent)<\/caption>\n<style>\ntable, th, td {\n  border:1px solid black;\n  border-collapse: collapse;\n}\n<\/style>\n    <thead>\n        <tr style=\"height:40px\">\n            <th>Seniority<\/th>\n            <th>B2B (net)<\/th>\n            <th>Employment Contract (gross)<\/th>\n            <th>Difference<\/th>         \n        <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n        <tr style=\"text-align:center;\">\n            <td data-label=\"Seniority\">Junior<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"B2B (net)\">~\u20ac2,100<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Employment Contract (gross)\">~\u20ac1,860<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Difference\">B2B \u2248 +13%<\/td>       \n        <\/tr>\n        <tr style=\"text-align:center;\">\n            <td data-label=\"Seniority\">Mid-level<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"B2B (net)\">~\u20ac4,395<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Employment Contract (gross)\">~\u20ac3,490<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Difference\">B2B \u2248 +26%<\/td>       \n        <\/tr>\n        <tr style=\"text-align:center;\">\n            <td data-label=\"Seniority\">Senior<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"B2B (net)\">~\u20ac5,760<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Employment Contract (gross)\">~\u20ac5,015<\/td>\n            <td data-label=\"Difference\">B2B \u2248 +15%<\/td>                 \n        <\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How to read this correctly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>B2B figures reflect net invoice value (before personal taxation)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Employment contract figures are gross salaries<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Effective net income on employment contracts is typically 65\u201372% of gross, depending on tax structure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a result, the real take-home difference between B2B and employment contracts is often even larger than shown above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-advertised-salaries-vs-real-earnings-what-do-developers-actually-make\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advertised Salaries vs Real Earnings: What do Developers Actually Make?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most valuable insights from the report is the comparison between job offer ranges and real earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-junior-developers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Junior developers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real earnings closely match advertised salaries (\u00b11\u20132%). Expectations are generally realistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-mid-level-developers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mid-level developers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Actual earnings are on average 19\u201321% lower than the upper ranges shown in job ads.<br>This is the largest expectation gap in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-senior-developers-b2b\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Senior developers (B2B)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seniors are the only group whose real earnings slightly exceed advertised rates (+1%).<br>This reflects strong negotiation power and scarcity of advanced skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For international employers, this confirms that salary ranges in job ads often represent upper limits, not guarantees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-salary-growth-in-2025-who-benefited\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Salary Growth in 2025: Who Benefited?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite cautious hiring strategies, salary growth continued across most seniority levels:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>62.5% of IT professionals received a salary increase<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>23% reported raises above 20%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>29% received moderate increases of 6\u201310%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Only 5.8% experienced salary reductions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Senior developers on employment contracts recorded the highest salary stability, indicating that companies increasingly treat key specialists as long-term assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-ai-data-and-cloud-where-are-it-salaries-growing-fastest\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">AI, Data, and Cloud: Where Are IT Salaries Growing Fastest?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The strongest salary and hiring momentum are concentrated in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>AI &amp; Machine Learning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Data Engineering and Analytics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cloud &amp; DevOps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Generalist development roles are losing relative value, while deep specialization is consistently rewarded with higher compensation and stronger job security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-does-this-mean-for-international-it-recruitment\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does this mean for International IT Recruitment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From an international perspective, Poland offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-strengths\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strengths<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Highly skilled developers with strong English proficiency<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Competitive developer salaries in EUR compared to Western Europe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mature IT ecosystem and stable legal frameworks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"h-challenges\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenges<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Limited junior talent availability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Salary negotiations require market understanding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Specialized roles command premium compensation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland remains cost-effective, but success in hiring depends on accurate salary benchmarking and realistic expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-market-perspective-from-optiveum\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market Perspective from Optiveum<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on ongoing recruitment projects for international clients, three patterns dominate the Polish IT market:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Specialization matters more than title<\/strong><br>Advanced Data, AI, and Cloud engineers often out-earn generalist senior developers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>B2B remains essential for top talent<\/strong><br>Especially for senior, architect, and AI-driven roles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hybrid work is now the norm.<br>Fully remote roles are declining, but flexibility remains a key factor in recruitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-conclusion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Polish IT market in 2026 is no longer an \u201ceasy money\u201d environment, but a mature, professional, and globally competitive ecosystem.<br>For companies that understand real salary levels, contract structures, and specialization trends, Poland continues to be one of Europe\u2019s strongest locations for building high-quality tech teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read also:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a

Over the past two decades, Marek has built and led recruitment and outsourcing operations for some of the world's largest staffing organisations - including Hays, ManpowerGroup and Randstad - working across Poland and the wider Central and Eastern European region. His focus has always sat at the intersection of IT recruitment, nearshore team building and go-to-market strategy for companies expanding into CEE. He has advised scale-ups, enterprises and PE-backed portfolio companies on everything from single senior hires to full engineering teams of 20+ people - always with the same philosophy: verify before you place, and stay involved after the hire.

Over the past two decades, Marek has built and led recruitment and outsourcing operations for some of the world's largest staffing organisations - including Hays, ManpowerGroup and Randstad - working across Poland and the wider Central and Eastern European region. His focus has always sat at the intersection of IT recruitment, nearshore team building and go-to-market strategy for companies expanding into CEE. He has advised scale-ups, enterprises and PE-backed portfolio companies on everything from single senior hires to full engineering teams of 20+ people - always with the same philosophy: verify before you place, and stay involved after the hire. Outside of Optiveum, Marek has visited more than 60 countries and speaks six languages - an outlook that shapes how he thinks about cross-border hiring: every market has its own culture, compliance rules and expectations, and treating CEE as a single homogeneous talent pool is usually the first mistake companies make.","url":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/author\/marek-wrobel\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3345"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3345\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3441,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3345\/revisions\/3441"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3442"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3345"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3345"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3345"},{"taxonomy":"service_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.agencjacudo.pl\/optiveum-new\/website\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service_type?post=3345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
