Ivan Consultant «Even if joining UMC was just an internal move, it caused significant transformation in my way of life I was moving from the East to the West, shifting from the business side to consultancy environment, switching from budget execution to projects realization and all these changes were strictly dependant on how smooth and quick I can integrate the Unit. After few months in UMC, I can say it was very easy to integrate: environment is totally transparent and respectful! I would compare it with the relay in light athletics, because no matter what project and responsibilities are, I feel free to act at my lap At the same time, output is strictly dependant on trust between all team members and overall results come from performance of both you personally and the team as a whole. Finally, it is important to train, to learn and to improve constantly.a real challenge for young professionals eager to grow!»
