Pros

-Understanding Agile in all its purity! -Smart colleagues -Good Salaries -Good benefits

Cons

- Too much travel - Extreme arrogance of people who have been there for a few years makes you sick - Senior management seems to deal in favouritism a lot more then other organisations of this size. - Flat structure is a myth, there is a hierarchy only more hidden then in other orgs. Typically the RM.

Pros

I've met some of the most intelligent people here. Many have taken up employment at TW from higher paying jobs just because of the amazing work culture and camaraderie. Especially in India, where attrition is very high, TW seems to be able to attract and keep some great talent.

Cons

Expectations and roles are extremely abstract. Sometimes, that's a great thing to have, but as a newcomer, its very hard to figure out exactly what you need to do. Extreme weightage is also given for "tenure" at the company.
