Pros

Just work here if you are really desperate for a job.

Cons

This company positions itself as a champion of the tech industry, claiming to enhance the world technically and socially. However, their actions do not align with their rhetoric, making them a particularly troubling case. I might not be as bothered if they were like any other run-of-the-mill corporation, but the reality is that they no longer practice what they preach, unlike their 2010s reputation. They've lost valuable book authors and even Brazilians who speak English prefer working offshore. The only remaining employees are either those who excessively flatter their superiors or junior staff who are expected to perform at a high level for clients despite their lack of experience. The company's culture is non-existent. I've heard accounts of harassment towards women, discriminatory behavior, and political games. Since their sale, the company has dwindled to less than 10% of what it once was, devoid of thought leaders, culture, and benefits. Despite their belief that colorful walls and sitting on the floor attract applicants, I urge you to explore alternative options and steer clear of this company.

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.
