Innovation and customer centricity are at the core of what we do at ThoughtSpot, so it's great to hear those came through during your time here. Work-life balance at a fast-moving company is something we keep a close eye on — it's an honest tradeoff at times, and we appreciate you naming it. Wishing you well in what's next.

Pros

- Very flexible on work schedules - hybrid - friendly environment

Cons

- little bit political - bad dev experience on CI pipelines

ThoughtSpot Response

1mo

Three-plus years as a Staff Engineer says something real — glad the flexibility and hybrid setup have been working for you. A friendly environment doesn't happen by accident, and it's something we work hard to maintain. On the politics front, we hear you — directness over dynamics is something we hold ourselves to, and it's worth a constant gut-check. The CI/CD pain is a fair call; our engineering leadership knows dev experience is a force multiplier and it's actively on the investment roadmap. Thanks for sticking with us and for the honest read.

Competetive Salary Good Hike overall

No RSU Stocks are just paper money

ThoughtSpot Response

Competitive salary and strong hike recognition over five-plus years — genuinely glad that held up across your time here. The RSU piece is real feedback, and we hear it often; equity value is tied to what we're building, and we're focused on making ThoughtSpot a company where that matters. We appreciate the long run and the honest note at the end.
