What are the critical moments for you when choosing a company and team?

When choosing a company and team, the following factors are critical for me:

• Company culture and values: it is important that they align with my views and working style.
• Technical stack and approaches: interesting and modern technologies, opportunities for professional growth.
• Team atmosphere: support, openness to knowledge sharing, absence of toxicity.
• Development processes: a balanced approach between flexibility and discipline, use of CI/CD practices, code review.
• Opportunities for learning and development: participation in conferences, internal training, mentoring.
• Transparency and communication: clear understanding of project goals, regular feedback.

These factors help to work effectively and with pleasure, as well as to develop as a specialist.
