Pros

If you are young, inexperienced and have little options then Thoughtcorp may be a good choice to get exposure to different things.

Cons

Leadership divided, no vision or strategy, somewhat of a sweat shop and very little learning opportunities. Too much favouritism with certain people and a lack of expertise in any area really limits the amount of learning you can do. The owners are nice and interesting but really don't bring anything to the table in terms of expertise. The same goes for the senior management. I doubt any of them would land a senior role in a bigger firm.

Pros

Interesting projects, high tech standards and internal knowledge sharing, and a rich representation of all possible Slavic accents.

Cons

Engineering-first culture results in obnoxiously fragmented internal tech platforms because errybody wants to build it themselves. Not a big deal, just engineers doing what engineers will do.
