Pros

- The company in Spain offers good benefits now (private insurance, RSUs, Gym %, etc cheap things). - You can find good career communities if you get a good resource manager.

Cons

- 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).

Pros

Interesting projects, high tech standards and internal knowledge sharing, and a rich representation of all possible Slavic accents.

Cons

Engineering-first culture results in obnoxiously fragmented internal tech platforms because errybody wants to build it themselves. Not a big deal, just engineers doing what engineers will do.
