Pros

If you are young, inexperienced and have little options then Thoughtcorp may be a good choice to get exposure to different things.

Cons

Leadership divided, no vision or strategy, somewhat of a sweat shop and very little learning opportunities. Too much favouritism with certain people and a lack of expertise in any area really limits the amount of learning you can do. The owners are nice and interesting but really don't bring anything to the table in terms of expertise. The same goes for the senior management. I doubt any of them would land a senior role in a bigger firm.

EPAM Systems Response

Thank you for your review. We are glad you are enjoying the learning opportunities we are able to provide for our employees. However, we're disappointed you are having a negative experience while between projects at EPAM. We utilize the time between project assignments as a way for employees to continue their professional growth. Your resource manager should be able to provide guidance, but it is still up to individuals to upskill, prepare for project interviews and advance their career through networking, peer feedback and learning opportunities. We are always here to support our employees with the resources they need to grow with us. Please reach out to discuss specific questions or additional feedback we can use to improve this process Glassdoor@epam.com. Thank you.
