Pros

The work style is still better than other Indian IT services company Flexible work timings and Work from home options No restrictive policies or processes Can run your own pet projects Good place for developers to learn and showcase their talents Good office infrastructure and benefits like free breakfast and lunch, snacks, coffee, juice etc

Cons

Coterie run by office principal in Chennai office and his political outlook for everything from projects to appraisals People champion in Chennai office is a disgrace to the company Bad projects nowadays which does not give developers much to work with other than listening to clients whimsical requests In pursuit of growth, they have gone behind large enterprisey clients. So no cool projects or small projects in Chennai

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.
