Pros

- the product is cool - the company is profitable and growing - hybrid work, you can go into the office as many times as you want, from 0 to 5 days a week, you're completely free

Cons

- salaries are falling behind, and the company refuses to address this problem. Instead, management tries to sell a story along the lines of "aren't you lucky you have a job, other companies are firing people" It's only a matter of time before this is reflected on the quality of our hires and therefore product. No money = no talent - the "benefits" are overplayed -- we have average lunches once a week. Pension contributions are a meagre 5%, just above the legal minimum - employees are not appreciated/recognised. Instead of actual help (£££), we get the classic startup package of mental well-being training and so on - autonomous teams don't work, they only create technical debt - knowing people goes a long way because the company has no structure All the problems I described have been known to management for years, they just lack the will to fix them. They think things are fine as they are.

Hi, thank you for your review. I’m really sad to hear this was your experience at Wise. This is the opposite of how we want people to feel, in particular your concerns around recognition and compensation. If you're comfortable reaching out to talk about the issues you're facing, whether it's with me, your lead, or another trusted member of the People team to talk through things confidentially, we'd like to hear more. Feel free to slack me, Paula
