Pros

Excellent Benefits, great PTO, clear process to get promoted. Okish paternal leave.

Cons

The clients are not always good, most of the times you get to work with technologies and processes that will not increase your value in the future, you dont have stock options (you can buy them at a premier price from whatever the market value is a little less) however, epam doesn't offer any RSU to it's employees. Bad perf bonus and salary increases, when you get a salary increase most of the times it's not even the year inflation. Bonus is peanuts, there is no incentive to keep working with this type of practices

Pros

You get exposure to the very latest technology, and the company is implementing it in impactful, real-world ways. Even if you're not in a tech role, you naturally build deeper understanding in the latest technologies that you may never get exposure to at other companies. Truly global. Even for employees not in global roles, you still get good visibility into the company's global scale and impact.

Cons

Too much process around approvals which reduces speed of execution. Asked to step-up but then insufficient support provided. Two-faced behaviors of managers has become acceptable.
