Pros

The company has established cool values that motivate to work hard and prioritize the product users need. The company employs top specialists and maintains a data driven approach. Friendly atmosphere and approach to every employee.

Cons

After the change of shareholder, the salaries of all employees in Armenia were recalculated and reduced by at least 30% without prior warning. The company claimed that there would be no salary change. All previous established values of the company left the company together with the previous CEO Vladimir Pravdivy.

Pros

- People are usually nice and well-coming. - Some units/teams are highly professional, especially verticals like Real Estate and Auto. - Data-informed culture, many cool research reports can be found on Confluence. - Great analysts and engineers who are genuinely interested in the product. - High salary.

Cons

- Some units/teams are shockingly weak. No strategy, research, modern product frameworks — just data manipulation to match the OKRs. - A/B tests are often an excuse for bad design decisions. - Waiting for months to ship anything. A lot of legacy which kills UX solutions. - Design is more like an optional layer and not a strategic partner. - Demotivated designers in some units. The salary is probably the best on the Russian market, so people stay no matter whether they like the job. - Non-transparency of the design management decisions. Too much politics. - Interview promises don't match the reality. You might join the company for a new innovative project, but will find out in the first weeks that they actually were looking for a strong professional to fix a problematic team. No innovation, just eternal syncs and lack of expertise and resources.
