Pros

Nice benefits (most of them are irrelevant because of the pandemic); the tech stack is up-to-date, even experimental at times (functional Scala, etc.); lots of opportunities to learn new things if you're interested; nice people, if you're lucky with your team. Can be great place for a first job, especially if you manage to get into their Fintech educational program.

Cons

Pay could be much bigger given all the talk about the company's financial performance; only one bonus per year (basically 13th salary), over-the-top corporate propaganda (Tinkoff family, Tinkoff DNA, etc.), not so nice people, if you're unlucky (rarely incompetent, but often rude and not exactly fun), paranoid security rules, which are fair given the amount of customer's personal data stored. Top management constantly compares Tinkoff to other IT giants, like Yandex, Mail.ru, etc., but in reality the overall atmosphere and the working culture is still of a typical bank.

Pros

- Strong team of specialists, developers, QA engineers, and analysts, providing a powerful boost and environment for skill development - A real focus on test automation, with substantial resources allocated to it; we genuinely aimed to automate all features from the start - Solid development stack with modern technologies - A great employer with no pressure or toxicity from leads or managers, fostering a friendly and collaborative atmosphere - Excellent year-end bonuses, typically equivalent to two salaries, and annual salary increases to keep up with inflation - Minimal bureaucracy and reporting compared to many other large banks, with a lot of trust and autonomy - Very few overtime hours; in two years, I was never asked to work on weekends or late nights, ensuring reasonable deadlines and a genuine commitment to work-life balance

Cons

It’s hard to come up with many drawbacks, but overall: - The option to work from abroad has been removed; now it’s only possible from Kazakhstan, Belarus, and Armenia. - The salary is good, but it’s not the highest on the market - Occasionally, there are toxic employees, but it’s rare, and team leads always made an effort to resolve any issues
