Pros

* You set your own bar - and you need to set it high :) * You don't need to be manager - ever !!! * Hard work , Brilliance and knowledge is key for success - you learn continuously to be at par of other thought-workers - as they also learning every day * Reading is valued - and recommended * People connect is important - to connect to other people, you don't need to be talkative or extrovert - Honest people are liked by other thought-workers. * Your demonstrated skills are valued more than your experience on paper * What you did today matters more than what you did yesterday * Salary is not the (only) reason for me to work for Thoughtworks. There are many other reasons as well. My friends in other companies can't believe it. lol, * Senior management are available without any appointments. - they don't have cabins, so they can always sit in front of you.

Cons

* very limited work from home options for mothers of small kids or anybody else in need * Some people may come across to you as arrogant

Pros

+ full of really smart people + company has high standards in people hired and company values and culture + not "up or out". You define your own career path + people support has increased greatly in the last couple of years + a company with a conscience + privately held company means reinvesting in company instead of paying out shareholders + management bends over backwards to accomodate good performers

Cons

+ travel can be tough + tough environment for introverts
