Pros

People. There're great people when they aren't affected by EPAM processes.

Cons

- No transparent communication with employees regarding the situation, changes to previously provided benefits and perspectives. - Relocated employees are NOT employed by the Turkish legal entity, which puts them into a grey zone regarding taxes. - The company stopped providing visa support to non-registered partners of employees supported at the beginning of the relocation process and did NOT communicate it in advance. - Medical insurance covers nothing, and the company changes its conditions without prior notice. Therefore, you can NOT plan any checkups or treatments, leaving aside serious cases. - The company does NOT provide financial help to employees forced to leave Turkey (in case their or their partners' residence permit applications are rejected - this happens now and then). - The relocation team often fails to provide accurate information regarding the specifics of Turkish document flows. - Relocation with the company from Turkey is complicated to the point of non-existence (however, you can be offered some options if you have an alternative offer). - Salary growth is frozen (again, you can be offered some options if you have an alternative offer). - Assessments (often the only instrument to switch to another salary range and get a chance to move to a more 'expensive' location) are frozen. - The company knows perfectly well about all these problems and does NOTHING.

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
