Does this make sense without translating back into Russian?

...in Russia developers are still working for wonder.
With translating into russian and guessing the meaning, it probably means the following: (select to show)

Working for wonder - work for menial wage but on interesting project

"Working for wonder" doesn't make any sense. :sorry:

Thanks, I suspected it.

I can't think of a short English phrase which means the same thing. Sometimes we say "he wasn't in it for the money", but that doesn't mean someone is not getting paid necessarily.
