Pros

Above average salary in India

Cons

All the policies are unjust to employees. Starting from salary structure where basic component makes only 20-25% of full salary . First month employees get only Basic salary i.e only 20% of comitted salary. And at the time of FnF they hold back the remaining salary and you would need to fight with them for them to actually admit they owe you money and get that. HR is just a showpiece and has no real function. The System kept in place for promotion, is just an eyewash. You can end up answering 90% correct answers, but panel will still write 'Hence we can see that candidate doesn't meet the criteria' Managers are as week as it gets. On clients, there there are multiple vendors working simultaneously, other vendors will steamroll EPAM employees, yet managers will be like, yeah I have taken note of it, I will let higher management know. They will never themselves act. Most of the clients are toxic and don't feel the need to basic decency in conversation and will outright demean you, with EPAM management as silent bystanders.

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

Pros

You get exposure to the very latest technology, and the company is implementing it in impactful, real-world ways. Even if you're not in a tech role, you naturally build deeper understanding in the latest technologies that you may never get exposure to at other companies. Truly global. Even for employees not in global roles, you still get good visibility into the company's global scale and impact.

Cons

Too much process around approvals which reduces speed of execution. Asked to step-up but then insufficient support provided. Two-faced behaviors of managers has become acceptable.
