Pros

The only silver lining of working here is the benefits are really good. They cover most of your health insurance, provide free lunches, and have fun company events.

Cons

They fire lots of people whenever they feel like it. They fired a large part of my team without warning. The trainers don't train correctly and they blame their employees for not doing their job right when we did what we're told. The grading criteria is super strict and it works against support agents to the point it's unrealistic to pass QA. The pay is low for the amount of work the leads ask of you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we really appreciate it. We're sorry to hear that you didn’t had a good experience at Wise, particularly when it came to training and expectations of agents. At Wise, we believe in building a culture of continuous growth and learning. It starts with our onboarding process. Everyone attends our company onboarding program, followed by function specific onboarding and training. We regularly revise and iterate these programs based on feedback and best practice to ensure they are designed to support Wisers to perform their roles successfully. Every employee also receives a professional development budget to use for building their skills and development. Our commitment to investing in learning and development for all team members reflects our dedication to creating an environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to our mission. We are also committed to making transparent decisions around how to structure our teams to ensure the best outcomes for our customers while providing the best employee experience. We sometimes have to make difficult decisions to make sure we’re set up for long term success. For those directly impacted by those decisions, we aim to treat every Wiser with fairness and respect as we manage those processes. I do hope you were able to pass on your feedback before you left. If you're up for sharing more, we’d be keen to hear more about your experiences. Please drop us an email to employerbrand@wise.com. Nicola

Pros

Mission-Driven Work: Wise’s mission of "money without borders" aligned perfectly with my personal values. I was genuinely excited to go to work every day, tackle challenges, and track our progress toward that goal. Exceptional Peer Group: The hiring bar is high; you’ll work with smart, diverse, and genuinely interesting people from all backgrounds. Cutting-Edge Product: Working on the Wise Platform is a great technical experience. As an Implementation Manager, you get excellent visibility and access to the Product and Engineering teams. Top-Tier Documentation: Internal enablement and documentation are highly organized, making it easy to self-serve and find answers quickly.

Cons

Lack of Transparency in Management: I received no negative feedback during my probation period, only to be placed on a PIP two weeks after it ended. The feedback loop is non-existent; instead of real-time coaching, minor oversights are "saved up" to justify disciplinary action. Poor Feedback Quality: The PIP I received felt AI-generated, filled with corporate jargon and lacking substantive examples of performance failure. It felt like a formality rather than a genuine attempt at development. Toxic Management Culture: There is a palpable sense of micromanagement and "back-stabbing" within certain leadership circles. The environment shifted from collaborative to manipulative, with a noticeable lack of directness and honesty. Growth Hurdles: The Sales team appears to be struggling to close deals, which impacts the overall momentum of the department.
