Pros

An excellent company for beginners to start with, which has built a powerful personnel training system. The number of different oppotunities with which you can develop your expertise is quite large. Very friendly and open atmosphere in project teams. Colleagues are always ready to help and share their experience

Cons

Disgusting management that doesn’t communicate at all and keeps you in the dark about current rules in the company (for example, frozen assessments and revisions of compensation). Non-competitive salary with the market without payment of any bonuses if you do not overtime. Quiet dismissals after 3 months on the bench. Recognition is at zero, motivation drops exponentially

Pros

Amazing team—very collaborative, supportive, and welcoming from day one. Strong leadership, my manager is incredibly supportive and gives you autonomy to take ownership and bring new ideas forward. There is a well-structured environment—processes are clear, well explained and continuously improving. Great opportunities to learn; many trainings and tools available to support professional growth. People genuinely care about each other and create a positive work environment.

Cons

In some cases, coordination across teams can take extra time
