Pros

This review is based on my experience with EPAM India for past 1.5 yrs. - Opportunities to work with the latest technologies(if placed in a good project) - most of the projects use test automation & automation community is huge compared to other organizations - lots of training (internal & external) is provided to the employees - Free access to online training platform Lynda is provided - internal tools are built using cutting-edge technologies - HR team's initiatives like photography training/Foreign language training (French/Russia), Healthy You etc.,. are good - interview/recruiting process & promotion is one of its kind. Your manager has very less influence on your rating. - most of the employees do coding (even managers), and the organization itself follows Engineering Excellence program - paymaster for the new hires

Cons

- very fewer projects being operated from India - there is always a differentiation between India team and global team - HR policies need to be enhanced for Insurance policies & Other employee benefits - Continuous hire and fire (less security for the job!)

Pros

You get exposure to the very latest technology, and the company is implementing it in impactful, real-world ways. Even if you're not in a tech role, you naturally build deeper understanding in the latest technologies that you may never get exposure to at other companies. Truly global. Even for employees not in global roles, you still get good visibility into the company's global scale and impact.

Cons

Too much process around approvals which reduces speed of execution. Asked to step-up but then insufficient support provided. Two-faced behaviors of managers has become acceptable.
