Business outlook
Pros
Good work life balance. Good salary taking into account that you don't have to work hard.
Cons
You don't work for EPAM, but you are sold as a contractor to a big bank. You as a contractor do not receive normal equipment and a fix desk in the bank's office, but you still have to work there. If you are lucky you get a 3 year old laptop if not, then 6 or older. The technology stack is old (IE11 and JSP in 2018) and it is really hard to introduce anything new. The political games are more important for the management than actually delivering software. The software testing is entirely manual and the release cycle is 3-6 months.
