Pros

Interesting and challenging projects with modern technologies and international clients. Excellent learning opportunities through internal trainings, certifications, and knowledge-sharing sessions. Supportive team and colleagues — people are professional and always ready to help. Good work-life balance with flexible hours and remote/hybrid options in Poland offices (like Gdańsk/Gdynia area). Stable company with a strong reputation in the industry.

Cons

Salary increases are modest and not always competitive with market rates, especially for long-term employees. Bench periods can be stressful due to the policy around project allocation and potential risks. Some bureaucracy in processes and decision-making, which can slow down daily work. Limited rapid career growth without switching projects frequently.
