Pros

Most people in professional services roles "on the ground" delivering to clients are great. Most client facing leaders care about the people and delivering to the client. So when working on a client project things are mostly pretty good. Learning is encouraged

Cons

New senior leadership is taking what used to be a great company and grinding it down. Legacy leaders that took the company down over the past few years are not held accountable for the sad state it has come to, and continue the path of mismanagement. It is almost like they dont know how to run a services organization. Leaders promoted from within are in way over their heads. Decisions are always by committees and usual are just not made. Common sense does not prevail. No raises, minimal promotions. Many years ago communications were open and honest, now they are mostly corporate speak and mostly untruths. It seems like the goal currently is to drive to metrics in order to sell the company and not about making this company great again.

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.
