Likes

- Anytime promotion based on assessment, it has pros and cons. PROS: You can apply anytime. CONS: Even if you do it good in project yet you need to appear in assessment and clear it. - Good appraisals - Health Insurance is competitive to product org or even better - Good tax saving options

Dislikes

- You won't feel engaged to organization as there is no much engagement with company except salary. You will be all the time working for client closely. - No outing or engagement activities in person - Leaves are less compared to other companies

Likes

Latest Tech Stack, Great push to experience new tech stack relevant to the industry.

Dislikes

...to use AI. As soon as you end one training, you'll be assigned with another one. For salary hike mostly you'll hear to go for internal assessment/interview to get promoted and get the hike.

Likes

Good CTC and other employee benefits. Permanent work from home.

Dislikes

...hy I didn't go with other offer or should have stayed with my last organization. Good package doesn't matter if you don't have job. They will kick you out within couple of months if you don't get onboarded on a project. The client interviews are really very difficult compared to the external interview and number of positions are also very less compared to the candidates appearing for it.

Likes

Good benefits, pay structure, remote opportunities. WLB in my case was good but again depends on project.

Dislikes

They take too much time in promotions. Senior resources still consider you as a number instead of an employee which is sometimes insulting.

Likes

-Fixed Salary -Good health insurance -Good client base -For tech enthusiasts it's a great place as there are lot of learning platforms and so many hackathons and code events

Dislikes

-Short term projects -Annual appraisals are not aligned with employee performance -Once we come out from project, again we have to prepare and give interviews to get another project and client interviews are not that easy to crack -For experienced people like 8+ there will be hell lot of expectations and we have to contribute to Epam as well Client with this we lose work life balance. So for experienced people its a challenging company where you have to be very compete and proactive to survive
