Pros

- Great place to try out your skills and challenge yourself. - Management welcomes initiative and is willing to give extra responsibility if you're up for it. - Good place to grow your career. - Interesting variety of projects. - Engaging field, with the company willing to provide domain education if you take initiative. - Good salary.

Cons

- Frequent shifts in backlog priorities due to management's desire to tackle multiple tasks simultaneously. This requires the role holder to have a high level of stress tolerance and willpower to protect the team from sudden changes.

Pros

Some colleagues are wonderful people. They were the ones holding everything together.​​​​​

Cons

At first, the experience was excellent — there was a wonderful team, and despite all the difficulties, there was a sense of support and unity. After major changes, everything started falling apart. Management was weak, decisions were strange, and people didn’t feel safe or secure. Laying off many great people caused an outpouring of outrage. The way the layoffs were handled was complete trash. The CEO’s wife is incompetent but makes many important decisions.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Pros

Some of the colleagues are nice. Remote working available.

Cons

Pay is much lower than industry standard No career progression opportunities or training Very few customers so business reliant on renewals. Cancellation of one or two may put in jeopardy (again). Genuine lack of care in staff wellbeing. Solution to most problems seems to be redundancy. Lack of willingness to try new approaches - or even industry standard ones! Read the reviews (many positive ones are “encouraged” to try and boost star ratings - It’s the COO’s way or nothing. Constant shifts in direction according to customer whims or latest trendy buzzword rather than focus on actual strengths. Very Russian centric culture - if you’re not Russian or don’t speak Russian don’t expect to feel anything other than secondary citizen.
