Pros

SoftServe is an outsourcing company with a variety of clients from all over the world and cutting-edge technologies. Here you'll get full the social package. The compensation always arrives in time. There is People Excellence program which helps people to develop skills and become a well-rounded specialist in the field. The company has a reserve for engineers when there is no current project assignment. The company cares about your mental wellbeing and work-life balance. All employees are good people who create an excellent and friendly work atmosphere.

Cons

Your project manager will likely be a People Manager rather than Engineering Manager, which is quite useless for mature engineers.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
