Go to thoughworks. ZS's business model doesn't favor testing track (I know a harsh statement) so you'll always be in crosshairs with developers. I have personally never seen anyone 'liking' testing team and test leadership at ZS which is incompetent, not worthy and also the reason why we aren't able to retain good talent in QA.

I personally know Testing is great at Thoughworks coz it is very central to their approach and SDLC. From a learning perspective, you'd be at a much better place there.

Totally Agree with M1 , Zs never values great talent in testing feild and as per personal experience being in the same area i have seen 0 learning curve for tbe folks in testing field.
Also who all are here since last many years in testing just only good with favouritism to the managers.
I have seen many great folks leaving just due to the uncertainities in the testing track. Also , moving out due to less or 0 learning & growth within the track.

ZS is a vgood choice

Please compare CTC ☺️

Okay no I was just referring to fixed vs ctc. I personally like thoughtworks better after I have been in ZS for 5+ years, but if I have never been to ZS then I would want to experience ZS as well.. and as you mentioned while other firms are scared shit of recession here ZS is giving good hikes so job security in ZS is unbeatable..

Thoughtworks is not that bad. Just check the latest balance sheets and you will be fine. ZS is ZS- Job security 110%, work life balance is dead!

Thanks for your suggestion 🙂

Thoughtworks for sure especially for testing. There are great opportunities here, and TW are pioneers in agile and testing. Read through some of the techs TW has created and pioneered, like selenium. No brainer here given ctc is also better

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
