So finally I've got an offer from ThoughtWorks. So here is the revised list of pros and cons.
ThoughtWorks | OrgLex | |
Work place | Agile practices - Great Work Culture | Startup - good opportunity to work |
Effect on personal life | Flexible Timings | Oppurtunity to pursue my own Ideas |
Compensation | High Pay | Average pay |
Platform | .Net, Java or (unlikely)Ruby | Web Development |
Long term Advantage | first hand startup experience | Learn corporate culture |
Nothing really new on the topic from previous post. Just a reiteration of the facts in a tabular manner and also wanted to tell you that till now I tended a bit towards Thoughtworks. Now, only if they would turn that package up a notch. :)
Update: Got a call back for my mail as I was finishing this post. So I got a very little hike from that less-than-good package to an okay-okay-types package. I'm almost happy. How about you guys? Please do speak what you want to and leave comments. You guys who bother enough to take a look at my humble blog are really important to me.
Edit: So I got a call from ThoughtWorks to remove the salary info from the blog. Yeah, I know its unusual, but I'm complying. May be because they asked my nicely ;). Hi HR(I didn't want to take your name; it's more sensitive than my salary.), if you are reading this, I would have appreciated a comment more than a call. :D
All the best ra!
After having spoken to you at TW, I'm sure you'll do pretty well.
@Deepu
Trust me, I'd be hard to leave TW after you've been around for a while ;)
