      Pros

      - Class leading product - Great talent and people

      Cons

      Whenever i mention to my friends that ThoughtSpot just had another round of layoffs, they react by saying: "Again?" "Didn't you guys have a good quarter?" In my 15+ year tenure in the valley, i have never worked in a company that fired so many people while seemingly doing so great. For context, in the last 2 years, my team has lost 75% of its members in layoffs. We are constantly working in fear of being the next one to be "axed". We keep our head down and go about our business trying to pretend we care about a product/company that cares so little about us. It's even more troubling that the leadership will entice its current members that we have a "excellent healthcare", "good pay" etc, but they always forget to mention we don't have a 401k match and our yearly salary bump is a mere $4000 at best. LOL

      Hearing this from someone in Finance, where the work is demanding and the margin for error is small, genuinely means a lot. The fact that you're experiencing the culture as values-driven and not just values-stated is exactly what we're working hard to build. The pace is real and so is the opportunity, and we're glad that combination is landing as energizing rather than exhausting. Thanks for taking the time to share this.

      Really glad the work-life balance and the technical team are working well for you — those are things we actively invest in and it's good to hear the signal is positive. On management direction: we hear you, and it's feedback we take seriously. We're in a phase of focused growth, and we know that can sometimes create ambiguity at the team level. We're working to tighten that alignment. If there's something specific that felt unclear, we'd genuinely welcome the conversation — reach out to people@thoughtspot.com.
