The culture becomes toxic

Pros

Some individual teams and projects still maintain healthy, human-centered cultures Valuable experience in various projects Good learning environment

Cons

The company culture has been steadily degrading and is becoming toxic. Despite improving business results, leadership consistently refuses salary increases, hiding behind vague “unstable market conditions” - as if employees’ personal lives were somehow stable and immune to inflation. For years, people are fed with empty promises: “just wait a bit longer, things will improve.” They don’t. Workload keeps increasing, expectations rise, but compensation ьщыедн stays the same. Even though salaries are occasionally increased (roughly once every 2-3 years), the raises are negligible and do not even come close to covering inflation. In practice, this results in a real decrease in income over time. Employees are expected to deliver more, faster, and with fewer resources. New processes are constantly introduced for the sake of process itself, often disconnected from real project work and adding bureaucracy instead of value. There is a strong sense of chronic fatigue and burnout across teams. Wanting a fair salary increase is subtly framed as selfish or disloyal, creating a culture of guilt rather than trust. Senior leadership appears to treat employees as expendable resources to be squeezed until exhaustion and then replaced.

Thank you for sharing such detailed feedback. We are glad you value your project team and learning opportunities, but we are concerned to hear about your experience with burnout and leadership communication. We strive to Value the Individual and balance necessary processes with a supportive environment, but it can be tricky. Regarding compensation, we regularly review salaries against market standards to remain competitive and keep our offerings aligned with our values and the industry. We also understand the economic pressure many feel right now. While the best way to address these issues would be a conversation with your Resource Manager or People Partner, we are also available to discuss your specific feedback further at Glassdoor@epam.com.
