Pros

Competitive salary compared to other Brazil companies Good benefits – Gympass, dental plan, life insurance, health insurance Opportunity to work on global projects and gain international visibility Strong sense of diversity and inclusion Budget for personal development It is a socially responsible (corporate citizen) company Remote work

Cons

The company has been going through difficult times and is trying to re-establish itself competitively in the market, with frequent layoffs and strong pressure for results (which did not exist before) You often don’t have someone closely following and supporting your development journey, which makes internal growth more difficult You often end up working more for the client than for Thoughtworks, shifting from the company’s culture to the client’s culture (which can be good or bad depending on the project) For Product Managers, many projects tend to be much more operational than strategic Performance evaluation is very subjective, with no clear individual-level goals to track Sometimes you will work alone, with no other thoughtworker
