      Pros

      Remote work. Tons of learning opportunity.

      Cons

      No investment in internal systems or processes. Company is dying after going public. Everyone is quitting. Layoff after layoff and no accountability at executive level. Replaced the CEO at least, but this was clearly a board move and none of the others who have been failing forever are taking any accountability for the terrible company performance, terrible company culture, or ridiculous lack of strategy and planning. Now is not the time to join this company... Wait and watch for it to sink or swim. Other issues... No pay raises for three years. Obnoxious review processes taking way too much time and offering no value to anyone. Confusing policies changing all the time about how to manage and enter working hours (other than to make you work way too many hours without being paid properly). Complete lack of clarity on roles and responsibilities. Chaos since they laid off everybody who actually knew what to do, everybody else who could leave has, and the only people left are the dinosaurs and the duds who haven't found something better yet. It is really sad to be here right now watching this legacy die.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. I'm sure you know, feedback is what allows our culture to grow and improve. And all Thoughtworkers are empowered to speak up especially if they don't agree with something so thank you for using your voice. We confirm that we have made a number of Thoughtworkers redundant across the business. We strive to make Thoughtworks equitable, reflective and inclusive of the society in which we live, however, these changes were necessary to support the future growth of our business. We did not make this decision lightly and regret that we had to say goodbye to some talented and passionate Thoughtworkers. We'd like to invite you to continue the dialogue by reaching out directly to tim.ogorman@thoughtworks.com.

      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.
