      Pros

      - Remote - Autonomy - You will encounter some of the most amazing people (globally) - The majority of people are willing to help you succeed - For the most part, you can bring your whole self to work - Pairing - Learning and Development opportunities

      Cons

      - Depending on position, client site traveling has ramped back up (con if you prefer full remote/no travel) - Some people can feel lost/disoriented if they are coming from rigid-type systems (ie: some coming straight from college or laterals coming from waterfall type of organizations) - There is less focus on social/economic justice, one of the initial pillars once upon a time, "Advocate passionately for social and economic justice". - Pairing can get exhausting - For some getting staffed on a client can be like playing the lottery (you will hear "it's your job to get staffed" from upper management, but realistically you can only control what you can control and that is stay focused, work on yourself/skills) - Loss of transparency - Unfortunately, a lot of what made this place special has changed since pivoting from their initial pillars that made the company so special/different

      Pros

      Great colleagues: professional, smart, interesting. If you like to travel, this is a place you will definitely do it. That's maybe a double-edged sword. Some engagements can be very professionally rewarding.

      Cons

      100% travel is the norm for North America. Many assignments are more "staff augmentation" than the higher-value roles that TW ostensibly prefers. I wonder how much TW *actually* avoids staff aug roles.
