Pros

- Healthy working hours - Over the average salary - Very remote friendly - not fully remote but almost

Cons

- the company, within engineering at least, is full of external consultants from EPAM that slow down, complicate and do not allow true Agile working - teams always have at least one or more consultants, which means misaligned incentives - there consultants also produce very little

Pros

Easy work, great co workers

Cons

Too many unnecessary office employees, and management. Driver facing cameras. Childish policies. A lot of brainstorming that mostly revolves around how to blame a driver or how to take money back out of drivers pockets in favor of paying people in the office whose jobs should be consolidated or replaced. They started paying more after Covid because their hand was forced, then the big minds got together and made new policies to take more than half of that money back from the driver and people who work overtime because clearly those people aren’t smart enough to figure that out and will just take it.
