Pros

- Work/life balance is treated as important by all - great group of technologists, I work with some of the smartest people I've ever worked with here. - Really good benefit package - Access to lots of training materials and budget

Cons

- The economy is forcing some changes due to limited work being able for US based consultants. - The layoff earlier this year has people a bit on edge, especially given the rest of the economy.

Pros

Great company culture, working with skilled technologists, challenging and deeply technical client projects, opprotunities to meet well-known industry experts like Martin Fowler, Neal Ford, Pramod Sadalage

Cons

Like every other company in 2023, Thoughtworks is experiencing some expected pain from the down markets. You can read more about this in their recent press releases. I'm fairly confident we'll get through this though and come out the other end better than ever.

Pros

The only place I've worked where I'm treated well and with respect. My concerns/feedback are always taken into account. Thoughtworks places a high priority on mental health and supporting people through tough times instead of hanging them dry. I highly recommend working here if you want peace of mind.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any....maybe the company can work on improving sales? Thoughtworks doesn't place a high priority on "profiting" as much as it focuses on "maintaining a sustainable business". While I find this HIGHLY admirable, it does place the company in tough spots during recessions. However they've only ever done layoffs in SUPER rare cases (maybe 3 times total in its existance) and still take care of those folks after the fact.
