Pros

Nice people. Global market. Growing. Good work life balance.

Cons

Lost most of what made it great originally. Different culture. The culture, practices and methodology that made the company so effective and worth the premium price have not passed on to the new hires. Less different than competing firms than before. Too much focus on growth and revenue and not enough on culture and quality of work. Hardly any real investment in AI and data science. Will take any work these days so less likely to be on an interesting project where you feel you are creating value. Unwilling to walk away from unwinnable situations. No longer a disruptive company. No longer a place for innovators and people with strong opinions. Management has little interest in ideas for improvement that don't result in immediate revenue production.

Pros

I've had a great experience building my career at Thoughtworks. One of the things that stands out most is the culture. It's collaborative, supportive, and filled with people who genuinely want to help each other succeed. Thoughtworks has also provided me with meaningful opportunities for career growth. I've been encouraged to take on new challenges, develop new skills, and explore different career paths. Leaders have been approachable and supportive, and I've always felt empowered to own my development rather than being confined to a single role. Like any organization, we’ve had our ups and downs. But the people and the commitment to continuous learning have remained consistent strengths. If you're looking for a place where you can grow professionally, work with smart and passionate people, and be part of a culture that values collaboration and innovation, Thoughtworks is a great place to build your career.

Cons

None that I can think of right now.

Pros

Great culture, very laid back and as long as you show up and get your work done you are meeting expectations

Cons

Very difficult to get any salary increases or promotions. Lived in fear of layoffs bc there were often not a lot of projects so I was often on the bench for months at a time
