Every March and April is job-hopping season, when many students are looking for PHP jobs, they are often asked the most topic is: which salary is better in PHP? What are the prospects? Everyone seems to be interested in the PHP industry and their salaries. What’s the status of PHP?

Programmer technical ability: 1. Elementary PHP: Thinkphp,Yii, Laravel, etc. 2. Intermediate PHP: get advanced skills – database indexing and optimization needless to say, sub-table sub-library or some, memcache and Redis use frequency can not be less than a month, do not understand the front-end is not to say that the past? 3.

1. What we are discussing here is the PHP salary level in Beijing in general. 2.3 PHPer below years, the difference in years has little influence on salary, which is mainly the accumulation stage. 3.5-8 years of PHP development will be in the direction of technology or management, but in China, programmers generally develop, few programmers are still struggling in the front line after the age of 35, and their competitiveness in the market will be weakened, so most of them will take the road of management early. Large companies have flexible pay structures, which shows that there is a wide range of pay within the same level.

There will be a watershed in 3-5 years’ PHPer, and the salary span is large, which is largely related to the self-cultivation of programmers. Programmers at this level will become the main force of corporate coding due to their experience and energy, and some small and medium-sized companies will also have the opportunity to transition to technical management. Of course, there are some aspiring programmers who start businesses.

From the perspective of THE development of PHP, development-oriented companies have a good atmosphere, good product prospects, large space, but high risks. Each choice has its own advantages and disadvantages. Only by combining their pursuit at different stages can they make the most suitable choice for themselves. PHP is easy to get started, hard to master, and do and cherish!
