Team members focus on code that behaves as users would expect. During the software design phase, we ensure the code is well-designed and fits into the surrounding architecture. As far as code complexity is concerned, the team will ensure that other developers can easily understand and use the code. During the test stage, the team ensures the code is well-designed for automated testing. There are clear and useful comments and descriptions for variables, functions, etc. in the code standard.

By focusing on code quality and writing well-tested code, the code will be more bullet-proof. Additionally, spending a day with another developer will encourage in-house developers to be more accountable and will lead directly to our next benefit. Apart from the inherent speed boost of clean code, programming is generally faster because it spends less time searching for solutions to problems through results. As there is always something to learn, the team has a great knowledge transfer session, and they seem to get the best results when developers share similar knowledge.

As a team, they always hold team bonding sessions from time to time to spend time with people outside of casual slack interactions and to share the frustrations and successes of working on a project together.

The team takes ownership of requirement, development, QA and implementation, including code ownership. Individual code ownership has some benefits, and system components have clearly-identified owners.

We perform code maintenance as someone fixes bugs and gathers and selectively implements feature requests. Onboarding new developers to a codebase are easy if everyone is familiar with user stories and the nuances that inform design decisions. Each developer is responsible for the quality of their work. All developers adopt test-driven development (TDD), code review, and knowledge gets organically shared between them.

EPAM has its internal portal that showcases a transparent career path map for each EPAMer. This helps them to understand the personalized career opportunities they can have in EPAM, explains how to reach them and provide resources to guide them to their career goal.

Open discussions and feedback are also given from time to time by stakeholders/peers. This ensures a transparent understanding of possible career opportunities in the company and builds a step-by-step journey to the desired title.

With every review cycle, ~20% of our EPAMers get promoted internally.

EPAM places a high priority on helping our EPAMers reach their full potential and achieve their professional goals through learning.

Internally, we have our training portal that directs all educational activities at ЕРАМ, including webinars, in-class training, self-paced studies, and language courses into a single platform. EPAMers can explore a wide range of different learning and obtain certifications in technical & technology, language, soft skills and leadership skills.

Aside from internal resources, EPAMers also receive unlimited access to LinkedIn learning solutions and potential grants for certifications. There are also opportunities to participate in engineering communities, tech talks and hackathons.
