Pros

IDT is a stable international company with long-term products and a strong engineering culture. There is a lot of autonomy, trust, and opportunity to work on real, large-scale systems using modern technologies. Good environment for professional growth.

Cons

Some processes can be slower due to the size of the company and distributed teams.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at IDT. It is incredibly rewarding to hear that you value our engineering culture and the level of autonomy provided to our teams. We take great pride in building large-scale systems with modern tech stacks, and we’re glad you feel empowered to grow professionally within that environment. Regarding your point on the speed of processes—we hear you. Navigating the logistics of a large, distributed international company can certainly present challenges. We are constantly working on streamlining our cross-team communication and refining our workflows to ensure that our global scale remains an asset rather than a bottleneck. We appreciate your hard work and are glad to have you with us as we continue to evolve.

Pros

High Engineering Standards: The interview process is rigorous, which reflects the high caliber of the team. You’ll work with true professionals in a facilitating environment. Focus on Quality: Unlike many companies, IDT values technical health. A significant portion of time is dedicated to tech debt, code refactoring, and infrastructure improvements—not just business features. Transparent Growth: Compensation is competitive, and there is a very clear, transparent framework for how to increase your salary and progress in your career.

Cons

On-Call Demands: Incident calls can be a reality here. While the tech debt focus helps, you should be prepared for occasional high-pressure support situations.

Thank you for providing such a thoughtful and detailed review of your time with IDT. We are thrilled that our commitment to technical health and high engineering standards resonates with you. We firmly believe that dedicating time to refactoring and infrastructure isn't just a ""nice-to-have"" but the foundation of building a sustainable, scalable business. It is also great to hear that our transparent career framework provides the clarity you need to grow your compensation and role with confidence. Regarding your mention of on-call demands: while we strive to minimize incidents by prioritizing tech debt and system stability, the nature of large-scale infrastructure means high-pressure situations can arise. We are committed to supporting our engineers during these times and ensuring that our ""facilitating environment"" extends to how we handle incidents and post-mortems together. Thank you for your dedication to quality and for being a part of our professional community.
