Pros

Flexible work timings fo tech team

Scale at which the company is growing

Flat Hierarchy when i worked

if you constantly disappoint in completing work then you are in the right place. They wont fire you.

Cons

If you are someone who can take up more work you will always be busy fixing issues while the rest of the employees peace out. So, no work / life balance

There is no such thing as onboarding from HRs. They have too much attitude

Focus is always on adding more features. On account of this, there are a lot of issues and most of the time is spent in fixing issues temporarily.

I recently talked to people in the tech team and found out that there are a lot of people coming from Thoughtworks. Some head joined from Thoughtworks and he is bringing a lot of people and trying to boss around. Apparently, no matter how hard you work, if you go against this tech head, he will make your employment hard by arguing & picking on you.

Few of the employees left the organisation because of this. How worse can it get?

Advice to Management

Founders, take my advice become a client to Thoughtworks instead of having so many people as employees from Thoughtworks. dont hurt other employees. Otherwise take some action before you lose other developers.

Tech Head from Thoughtworks, being a former employee if i got to know this information, developers must be feeling really bad. A tech environment should never be like that. I would suggest you to be friendly & respect everyone equally.Existing developers please report your concerns to founders directly. Do not be scared of anyone.I gathered information for few months from multiple people who left Rapido & compiled this. To all the potential employees, please think a lot about the culture & the environment along with the salaries.
