Pros

Coming from the outside you already know more than 90% of the company with regards to Industry trends, How and What people Buy, and likely the better way to operationalize or execute. They know how to invent things but not productize and certainly not take to market.

Cons

EPAM has a ton of systems and micro-manages everyone to excessive levels of data entry on what is happening (daily). Everyday, a raft of new systems, rules, products (that are not products), and capabilities are introduced so it is very hard to know what is important versus what is not. Very tribal and silo based.

Pros

Amazing team—very collaborative, supportive, and welcoming from day one. Strong leadership, my manager is incredibly supportive and gives you autonomy to take ownership and bring new ideas forward. There is a well-structured environment—processes are clear, well explained and continuously improving. Great opportunities to learn; many trainings and tools available to support professional growth. People genuinely care about each other and create a positive work environment.

Cons

In some cases, coordination across teams can take extra time
