Pros

- Very good work culture - Its WFH for past few years - There's a lot of learning that can be done outside of your account as well, be it communities etc. It's a big plus.

Cons

- Current stage of TW is more of forcing you to join an account where there is skill mismatch, uninterested push to join etc. which has been mostly due to the current status of the company and gives a bad impression to employees present there. Overall it is a great place to work in.

Pros

Everyone good is leaving or have left already. Good for them!

Cons

Since the pandemic this company has not compensated it's employees fairly. There was a pay freeze while tech pay soared to the highest ever. Then there has been subsequent pay freezes and minimal pay increases that are below inflation. There are seniors getting paid at Consultant levels and leads getting paid at senior level. To add insult to injury they publish salary bands for each grade and there are folks getting paid significantly UNDER their salary bands. They said it was for transparency reasons only, it doesn't mean they will make it right and pay you in your salary band. Getting a promotion doesn't guarantee a raise. Yes, you will get the title and the responsibility but not the pay. It isn't temporary either. This has been going on for the last 3-4 years. It is also not an isolated incident. Yet the company is asking more and more from us.
