Pros

- Nice place to start your career. They gave me an opportunity to choose a project according to my interests even though I got a job having no experience. - REALLY friendly and supportive employees. - The company assisted with relocation. - Flexible working hours.

Cons

- Lack of feedback about your work performance. - Inability to work and travel - Exceedingly low salary (comparing to the average for the same positions), no bonuses. - Ineffective communication process with other teams and customers. Personal subjective opinion: After some point (like after 1.5 years in the company) I started to feel like I'm floating in vacuum. Salary raises were frozen, tasks were becoming more and more mechanical, career growth ways were unclear. I lost all the motivation despite I really loved my project and team.

Pros

Interesting projects, high tech standards and internal knowledge sharing, and a rich representation of all possible Slavic accents.

Cons

Engineering-first culture results in obnoxiously fragmented internal tech platforms because errybody wants to build it themselves. Not a big deal, just engineers doing what engineers will do.
