Nice job for Smolensk

Recommend

Pros

It is difficult to find company in Smolensk which provides better compensation. Big office in city center. Mostly nice people. Experienced team.

Cons

Company pays much higher (sometime in times) if you are relocating to Smolensk. It is frustrating. If you are living in Smolensk you can work for years and manage a whole team but have a salary less than a new junior which relocated from the city next to Smolensk. Company has a lot of talented engineers but there is still a lack of people with true success experience who can lead a team to achieve something more valuable. Almost no chances for promotion. Very rare and small raises.

Pros

The backup and disaster recovery market is huge. Both eFolder and Axcient have products with great potential and poised to take away business from competitors. Great place to work because esprit-de-corps and morale are high!

Cons

The company is wasting money on spreading out the work force on different geographies: Cuptertino, Denver (US) and Smolensk (Russia). For a small start-up that makes just a few measly million dollars of income a year, can you afford to spread out so much? Why not consolidate? Different geographies come with different work cultures. Therefore there is a barrier in communication and particularly technology transfer. There are a lot of people who just want to keep their H1B status, paychecks or whatever ... so they keep their mouths well shut.
