Dmitrii Iermiichuk Head of Engineering Gotransverse

We wanted to switch from our outsourcing provider, and Alcor has become really game-changing for us. Within a mere 6 months, we got a fully-fledged team of 30 engineers in our own R&D office.

8. Why is it better for tech companies to hire software engineers in Poland via a recruitment firm than an IT outsourcing/outstaffing provider?

IT outsourcing and outstaffing can pose significant risks for technology companies. Issues like team indifference, hidden fees, and potential data breaches are just a few examples of hurdles that can arise when engaging with outsourced services firms. On the other hand, recruiting developers via a trustworthy IT staffing agency is devoid of these risks, as companies keep all decision-making under their control.
