Thoughtworks reviews

There is no real career path available for designers. ThoughtWorks is a tech first company, who has not demonstrated to me that they value design. This is apparent through lack of design leadership, lack of funds allocation to design initiatives, and lack of interest in career and leadership advancement of designers. For example, design does not get a seat at the table with the tech leaders in the business. There are no design-oriented promotion paths, but there is a strong and clear path of advancement for tech roles. I often feel I get mismatched with opportunities that do not challenge me and are transactional vs. strategic. There is a general lack of teamwork I feel working on projects. Instead, I have experienced divisiveness and argumentativeness on teams, which does not lead to great results or culture experiences. Leadership on projects is distant and uninvolved, so a lot of the time I've felt like there was no one to go to if I was having an issue or needed clarification. I've been told that I'm too introverted to be as successful as I want to be at ThoughtWorks.

They hired freshers in the month of july in their final year and next year after the college ended when they were supposed to get their joining in july as said during hiring, instead are told that we are delaying your joining by 6-9 months!!! Very unprofessional and disheartening. Caused great financial and professional set back to new graduates.
