Pros

Competitive salary Benefits 100% remote work

Cons

Very positive experience for first 2 years of employment. At the moment getting only worse. Cutting cost everywhere. A lot of people being fired regardless of labor law in Poland. Developers have full responsibility for the project, while managers have no. Depending on a project, you might be forced to work over time.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re genuinely sorry that your recent experience has been frustrating, especially given how positive your first years with us were. We want to reassure you that we always act in line with Polish labor law and our internal policies. We take these obligations very seriously, and any workforce changes are conducted in strict accordance with legal requirements. At the same time, we know that organizational changes, cost pressure, or project demands can be stressful and may affect how work feels on a personal level. Your feedback is valuable to us as we continuously work to improve our work environment and management approach. If you’re open to it, we encourage you to discuss your concerns directly with your manager or reach out to our HR team.

Pros

Decent pay but you will be expected to manage multiple client projects at the same time in an expedited timeframe and are often flying solo. If you come from traditional consulting, these projects will feel insane and unrealistic to deliver true quality.

Cons

All about who you know, not what you do here. Expect to have to work at 150% capacity plus spend at least 50% of capacity networking. You will be constantly asked to deliver with unrealistic timelines. People (i.e. business analyst group) are constantly stepping over boundaries and claiming work others with more expertise in a specific area should own. It is a constant cluster mess and I (as a junior associate) have been on my fair share of calls where leadership is yelling at each other about stepping into each other’s territories. I can only imagine what occurs on the pure leadership calls. Lots of people in director and above positions are on an egotistical trip and have zero interest in the team’s ideas, knowledge, or expertise. You will spend many phone calls just listening to the leader brag about themselves for 55 straight minutes.
