JAVA, WEB AND PHP SALARY SURVEY 20172
This exclusive and insightful report is currently one of the world’s leading and most comprehensive Java, Web and PHP surveys which covers salaries, benefits and bonuses, trends, sentiments, motivations and movement across the Java, Web and PHP communities. We have used data points from actual Java, Web or PHP placements made by Pearson Frank, as well as hundreds of survey results from professionals across the worldwide community between February 20th and March 23rd 2017.
These results were unveiled in London in April 2017 at the Jax DevOps London Event.
My genuine thanks to all of you who took the time to participate in our survey. The responses to the survey truly do help employers and employees understand where they are positioned in the industry and their individual role in a company. The value and quality of our document is aimed to support all professionals in the Java, Web and PHP community, but we are always interested in receiving feedback from you on how to improve and make our study more valuable in our future salary surveys.
We hope you enjoy the read and more importantly, find it useful, whether you are actively recruiting yourself or looking for a new position.

Investment inMarketing andAdvertising
Global Network of Candidates
When Pearson Frank first approached me, I was not actively seeking a new job but had considered possibly changing employers in the future. I was hoping to work for a company that offered an attractive salary and in a good location in my hometown.
From the beginning, I dealt with Sylwia, who was kind and friendly, and she closed a successful and satisfactory negotiation with my new employer on my behalf. The process only took one month, and I would definitely recommend Pearson Frank to my connections.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EMPLOYERS
1 Employees really value technical and certified training so it is important to allocate some budget for training and development. Training opportunities for staff create long term, loyal and productive employees.
2 Technology is always evolving. Employees look for new challenges and exploring developing technology helps to keep staff inspired.
3 Ensure that you understand how valuable your employees are and consider promotional aspects if you feel they are earned. Most employees will be thinking of earning potentials, especially if they have been with the company for a significant period, so make sure they are reminded that they are an integral part of the business.

It is difficult to headhunt for IT professionals because there is a high demand but a small pool of available candidates in the market, and the good candidates tend to already be working. I was urgently recruiting and since Pearson Frank are the experts in Java, Web and PHP recruitment, they were able to quickly deliver high quality candidates.
In the last year and a half, I’ve had a good working relationship with Recruitment Consultant, Essam, as he has successfully helped me fulfil seven IT roles across different companies and roles.

The Java and JEE market is extremely competitive as more and more international companies open their offices here and there are a very few Java Developers actively looking to change jobs. For the type of work we conduct in the business, we required multiple high-calibre Java Developers with extensive experience preferably in full-stack, as well as practical knowledge of the modern tools and technologies including Spring and Hibernate.
Pearson Frank’s access to candidates helped us hire nine Java and JEE professionals in one year, which was a huge help to us and we will definitely continue our relationship with Pearson Frank for future job roles in our business.
