Pros

The people, at least the peers, are usually easy going.

Cons

When I joined, Thoughtworks presented itself as an uber progressive company in various ways. Right after I'd joined I realized that's been at least a slight exaggeration. And over the years it got worse. The progressive values have gotten more and more irrelevant, and even the technical excellence, while still ahead of many other companies, was practiced inconsistently. This may sound like a minor issue to complain about, but I couldn't bear the hypocrisy anymore looking at the internal and external communication.

Thank you for your candid feedback. Hearing that our culture and communication have felt hypocritical is tough, but it is an important perspective for us to hear. Maintaining progressive values and technical excellence requires constant effort. As we grow, ensuring our daily practices match our ideals is an ongoing challenge that we actively work on every day. We want our values to be a lived experience. We take your advice to heart and remain committed to looking inward to close any gaps between our aspirations and the lived reality. We wish you the best in your next chapter.

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.
