      Poor management and very very slow in EVERYTHING

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Flexibility in time, so you can work life balance. But that’s not really the case when you have to call a meeting at night with different time zones

      Cons

      Appalling internal communication. They try so hard to market themself as an American company while majority of them aren’t even based in America(98% are Russians). So when it comes to communicating with non- Russian speaking colleagues, there were always delay in response or language barriers. Took huge amount of time to complete one simple task because of communication problem. New joiners aren’t also 99% Russians therefore they should just move their huh back to Russia instead of calling them set a Boston AI company. Everything is just SO SLOW.

      Good engineers + Autocratic top-managers

      Business outlook

      Pros

      * really good engineers; * flexible working hours since whole team works from almost from all the timezones

      Cons

      * very low salary and a thorny way to raise it; * if you work directly with top managers, be ready to not get any onboarding; * almost none of benefits if you are working remotely (only compensation with learning of English); * extremely thorny way to get an equipment; * the only HR manager for 150+ workers: lack of teambuilding and company non-working meetings, no help with conflicts, intransparent HR processes (how to get a vacation? how to raise a salary? how to get an equipment? how to get any benefits?); * no work-life balance at all; * Eastern-European type of top-management (read it as: pushing, communication on the verge of insults, no safe and polite feedback)
