One of the worst...AVOID!

Pros

Many of the international colleagues (outside of Moscow) are extremely nice and very knowledgeable about their markets.

Cons

Absolutely backward Russian mentality. Little in the way of Global acumen. The CSO thoroughly enjoys belittling non Russians publicly. Very embarrassing to watch for non-Russians. Derogatory terminology is used when sometimes describing people of other cultures.

Dear colleague I'm pleased to hear the very postive comments you have posted about some of your international colleagues. However, I'm deeply concerned about your views of our HQ colleagues and I want you to know that I'm ready to listen to your concerns anytime offline if you would like to talk. I hope you will contact me. Thanks in advance.

It is great to see that you rate your local colleagues and working environment high. I hope that you over time get an opportunity to work closer with HQ and your international colleagues too.

Pros

Decent benefits. Pay is alright. Technology and name in security are good.

Cons

Too much politics. U either accept what Russia says and make friends with them or ur time is counted. U r not relevant to them. Make sure to get in on a good pay level. Just look at the amount of mid level turnover recently.

Hi! Sorry for the response delay. Thank you for appreciating our pay, benefits, technology and reputation! It's always good to know. Then, I want to say that our turnover in 2015 matched national average number. We aware that some of our employees can have issues with cross-cultural communications. I'm sorry that you didn't request a training for cross-cultural awareness from HR before making a decision to quit. Also I want to say that most our sales leaders grew up from the inside of the company. Last promotion from a sales rep to a sales manager happened in December 2015. And as final comment, I want to clarify that global sales management team is located in Moscow (Russia). London (UK) and Boston (USA). So it's not precisely correct to say that "Russia says", it could be either of these three territories.
