Terrible HR Management and Internal Processes

Lead software engineer

Pros

Flexibility in work from anywhere.

Cons

Internal IT Systems for Employee issues are terrible and doesn’t go with industry practices or goes with “MNC” title. HR Teams are “goons” and doesn’t pay attention to employee issues and give absurd illogical response. I strongly believe they paid to get the “Best Place to Work” title in India.

Few opportunities for English speakers

Business Outlook

Pros

Good onboarding process and training material Good training options Great relocation support (both financially and with paperwork help) Good internal mobility program

Cons

Managers are very unprepared. Not only lack of soft skills and empathy, but also great communication problems. The company has a very strong bias towards employees who speak Russian (Russians, Belarusians, and Ukrainians). As many come from these regions and have limitations in speaking English, it is easier for them to communicate in Russian. As the company Competency Skills Matrix dictates you need a B2/C1 level of English to take management positions, you often see people with a real B1 level being evaluated in the English assessment as B2+ just to be able to assume such positions. This limits opportunities for non-Russian speakers and puts employees with low/zero preparation to deal with people in management positions just because of the language
