Depends on the project and your Resource Manager - Avis employé Product Manager EPAM Systems

- No team buildings, no integration with the team or office. - 90% of the time, management tries to sell smoke in town halls. Never talk with facts/data to back up what they say. - If you don't speak Russian you'll find a hard time integrating with them. So mostly you'll find your own group of English/Spanish speakers. - They promote Russians/Ukrainians to high management positions, people that have zero soft skills, they don't know what is leadership or at least what the rest of the world understands by that. The cultural shock here is huge. - Keep in mind that EPAM's DNA is Beloruss so somehow they'll have a preference for Eastern Europeans. - If you get a bad project ... good luck with that. - If you are on the bench for more than 15 days ... you are a target to be fired. (Except if you are eastern European, you could be there a couple of months).
