Pros

Smart people Friendly "management". We don't really have direct managers to report to. Management is mostly HR. The dreaded Project manager wields no more power than you do.

Cons

Sort of "cliquey" at times for new starters. Extremely friendly and social once you mix with folks.

Pros

We are all equals. I feel empowered, informed and cared for. I am left to do my job (consulting) in a way that makes sense to me. I get out there and am exposed to real life problems. I get the support I need to get stuff done. The people in our HQ are angels. They preform miracles on a daily basis to support all the crazy stuff we need to do for our clients.

Cons

It is hard work dealing with so many passionate and clever people. Some days I just want to sit by myself to take a breath. It is not perfect but by far the best place I've been at. ThoughtWorks expects a lot of me.
