Kitchen worker → waiter → barista → chef

Here, as before, the salary at the initial stage is 40 000 rubles. During the first 6 months the participant learns Russian very hard, as she will be working with people directly. After a successful knowledge check over the passed 6 months the participant becomes a waitress with a salary of 45 000 rubles. In half a year she will be promoted to barista, and later to chef.

After successful completion of the program, the participant receives:

Our employees work based on the KPI system - Key Performance Indicator, which is a type of performance measurement. KPIs evaluate the success of a particular person in terms of performing their work. One of our core values sounds as follows: "Everyone receives according to their results".

This is why salaries for employees consist of a fixed sum and a bonus part. Salary of the "Alabuga Start" programme participants amounts to
1️⃣ 40% (25 000 rubles at stage 1) of a fixed part and
2️⃣ 60% (35 000 rubles at stage 1) as a bonus part, which depends on accomplishment of tasks set within a month.
All together is 100% (60 000 rubles).
This allows employees to influence their own salary and get well paid 💵

* do not forget: in accordance with Russian law, all foreigners for the first 6 months must pay tax of 30% of the amount received. From the 7th month their tax is reduced to 13%, as all Russian citizens pay.
