What is the salary like at EPAM Systems?

Solid career development framework - EPAM has a well-structured career progression path with clear expectations for each level. If you're looking to grow your skills systematically, the framework is there to support you. Diverse project exposure - Depending on the project you're assigned to, you can work with modern technologies and gain valuable experience across different domains. Professional environment - Good collaboration tools, established processes, and a generally professional workplace culture. Learning opportunities - Access to training resources and certifications that can help you develop your technical skills.

Below-market compensation - The salary is noticeably lower compared to other companies in the region and market standards for senior-level positions. This was my primary reason for exploring other opportunities. Project dependency - Your growth and day-to-day experience heavily depend on which project you're assigned to. Some projects offer cutting-edge work and great teams, while others can be less inspiring. You don't always have much control over this. Office politics - Like many large organizations, internal politics can affect decision-making and team dynamics. Navigating these dynamics becomes part of the job, which can be draining at times.

Good pay, work life balance and good clients

As of now I have never experienced any cons as such

work from home, good pay, exposure to foreign clients and teammates, wide variety of clients

promotion is tough, happens only through interviews

Nice company to choose if it's the first big company in your career, your first company in your carreer, or your first relocation. Because it gives you a lot of opportunities to learn, internal events etc. Salaries are usually lower than on the market, maybe because they pay you even if you are on bench - having no project yet and you have plenty of time to learn and pass internal interviews to different projects. That means you can have good practice on how to pass interviews. But it worth asking if they pay you on bench, as I've heard some people don't get paid, maybe depending on location and contract type.

HR promised me relocation to USA after one year, but I'm still waiting. Of course the war has changed everything, but now I see market is growing, I get proposals from other companies and I think to change my job soon.

Good work life balance and good pay

Do not have much cons

Good pay, good culture and good wlb

Nothing as of now . Good

Good company, great pay culture

Nothing bad to say as such

Work conditions are fine, internal processes works pretty well.

Toxic work culture, baseless elitism, low salary and overly complicated raise process.

Good work life balance, great salary

If you are not in a project you job will be on risk

Knowledge base and community of specialists

Long time to raise a title and salary, a lot of burocracy
