Pluspunten

As broadly proclaimed - the company is indeed fast growing. As an employee, you can participate in different projects and learn/user different technologies. Sometimes, if you finish a project and haven't been assigned to another one, you have opportunities to learn some additional or pass certification. The career development path is pretty much predefined - in order to step up, you need a bunch of certificates for each level. Personal performance is not so important.

Minpunten

The main selling point (as they sale you as "professional") is your collection of certificates - not your knowledge/expertise. Most of certificates you can pass for free are internal. The external ones are not valuable in the IT world and are waste of time. If you want to take a "serious" one - it's your decision and your money. As a Ukrainian company, the management favor the ukrainian employees no matter of their level of experience - and this introduce some awkward situations when multinational team works with the client, and the "technical lead" or "project manager" pose some stupid questions, not suited for his role.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
