Pros

- EPAM is good in terms of pay, - if you want to upskill yourself also it is a very good company - as far as I know from the development perspective they always push towards using the latest trending tech instead of legacy tech. - The work life balance totally depends on the managers but the majority of them are chill but there are some toxic/micromanagement managers but very less of them. - WFH is totally dependent on clients for whom you are working for

Cons

- The life span of some projects is somewhat less and since EPAM bills very high amounts to the client the projects get ramped up very quickly. This causes an issue when you do not have a project and sometimes searching for the project will become tedious and ugly so watch out for it there will be signs. If you ask me I would say join EPAM only if they give a project before you join else don't because project search will be a mini job search again inside the org and also EPAM is not a company where you can settle and chill you need to always be aware of the project duration and the timelines so that you need to prepare yourselves accordingly - In EPAM the hike and promotions are 2 different things. The promotion process is also very tedious that you need to go through a process where you need to defend yourselves why do you need this promotion, prepare all the topics shared by the level up committee and give an interview which will be damn tough to crack instead you can crack an interview outside easily.

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
