Pros

The product road maap is solid, the newer versions show potential during all the demos that I have seen. The benefits are ok not the best in the world but are not disappointing as well. The leadership is flexible with your location to some extent and you get to work in an hybrid model and doesn't need you to be in the office

Cons

The best work culture is seen when you are looking at the engineering team in the organisation, they get all the praise and accolades. Your experience in this org will be decided based on the leader that you are working with. My team had an amazing leader earlier but after he left rather than hiring new leader the leadership gave the department to another internal person who doesn't know nor desires to understand anything about the processes that we are working on. And I have seen this happening a lot in the 2 years that I have been here. Layoffs are common phenomenon in the IT world these days so won't target Thoughtspot on that front however what's problematic is that people are not given an option to take a look at other opportunities from different departments rather they are just let go. Favouritism is a common theme that you will find in a lot of reviews and I would say that it's a truth at Thoughtspot, it doesn't matter how hard you work but things will go the way the favourite child would say irrespective of how dumb or counter productive they are.

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.
