For advertising no up front costs, 22.5% of first year salary upon graduation spread over 12 months is a pretty aggressive payment plan. At 100k that&#x27;s over $1800&#x2F;month. It could be a good deal for someone that&#x27;s still increasing their monthly take home though.<p>It&#x27;d be interesting if the payments were structured so that they were made by the hiring company, bringing the developer on with a reduced salary (or not) for the first year... or if they could be taken care of pre-tax. Not sure about the feasibility of those approaches.
