I have 2 offers one from Thoughtworks as Lead Consultant and from Citi as AVP(C12).
I am having 11 years of experience as java lead. Which company should I join in terms of work life balance, job
security and internal hikes/reviews and in terms of learning.
Fyi, both companies are giving around same enumeration.

How much citi is offering?

Definitely Citi. At your level you should definitely avoid service based company. Join Citi and grow into leadership roles rather than jump from one client project to another.

Thanks for the suggestion.
But only con I am seeing is you are stuck in a product/project so new learning comes there. Both may be technically or functionally.
Your thoughts?

Go with thought works

Well work life balance and job security is only possible in product company. At your level I would focus on leadership positions rather than learning (there is no end to learning). And leadership positions are easier to get in product companies as they usually have clear time-bound plus performance based trajectory for employees

I Have one offer of ESOFTLABS for sr. Java developer should i join company?
