Life-work balance
We believe that people can keep a passion for what they do only if they are well-rested and have a life besides work — that’s why we offer flexible working hours, fully-remote mode (though, you are always welcome at our office), and support of our experts’ learning endeavors.
Professional development
We care about our employees’ aspirations and always support them on their way to self-development — from regular performance reviews and personal development plans to providing our professionals with the ability to apply their knowledge on the project they are interested in, we are always here to support them.
Sport and parties
Football, basketball, cybersports — we have corporate teams for everyone who loves sports. Also, we never miss a chance to celebrate any events at our office or have an amazing corporate party. And yes, we’ve even been to Chornobyl together.
