Pros

Depending on department you could find yourself among brightest, coolest, most talented and professional people. Also opt for global HQ positions (even if you're locally based), those involve most decision-making and cross-functional projects.

Cons

Exceptionlly weird grading and compensation policies. Some nice features (like 401K for US), but mostly extremely untransparent and flat out illogical HR policy on rating people (multiple grading systems present and active at once for the same department, new hires get almost twice as high base pay as existing employees of the same grade and role\experience).

Hi there! Glassdoor says that you're from Moscow, so I don't feel confident to comment your whole review. However, I want to say thank you for appreciating our 401K plan. Alena Reva Head of HR Americas
