From the very beginning of my work in MLC, my understanding of remote work has completely changed. From an unstable, eternally suspended position, work became a support and an opportunity to develop and grow, doing what I have passion and interest for. Top level management, support in all difficult situations, cool teammates from different parts of the world, all this helped me a lot to grow and develop. Moreover I was always scared to work with clients because English was not my native language. In MLC I got a lot of practice and my level grew quickly. Now I'm way more confident and plan to work further because I see my future career opportunities in MLC and simply love this team ♥
