lon:wise https://www.indeed.com/cmp/wise-6/reviews Apr 25th, 2024 03:15PM Open Open Open Wise Analytics London Growth mode over. Cost-cutting. Lack of career progression. Bureaucratic. Pros Good benefits like all other tech companies Free breakfast on Wednesday Free lunch on Friday Ping pong tables etc. There are actually lots of good people that I actually work with Cons Growth has stagnated so there is cost-cutting Morale is really low Becoming more corporate and bureaucratic Politics as people are fighting over limited resources Constantly dogged by compliance and fincrime issues A lot of wrongly attributed contribution and wrongly promoted people I work with a few very incompetent senior people Opaque process for getting headcount. I think resources are being sub-optimally allocated based on bad information flow and views Wise will trudge along but the culture is quite badly damaged now 0.0 0.0 2.0 3.0 3.0 2.0 2.0 2.0 Apr 26th, 2024 01:07AM Apr 26th, 2024 01:07AM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services
lon:wise https://www.indeed.com/cmp/wise-6/reviews Aug 12th, 2023 02:16PM Open Open Open Wise Team Leader London Politics and toxic environment in the HR department I worked in a few top companies before joining Wise, the level of incompetence in the HR department at Wise is beyond ridiculous. It starts from the top, if you’re a 'Yesman' and enjoy executive orders from incompetent senior leaders this is the right department for you! Decent pay, awesome company events, opportunity to travel Politics. Regardless how many times they breach the code of conduct, some senior leaders are just UNTOUCHABLE 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 4.0 1.0 Aug 18th, 2023 12:52AM Aug 18th, 2023 12:52AM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services
lon:wise https://www.indeed.com/cmp/wise-6/reviews Mar 23rd, 2023 01:52PM Open Open Open Wise Operations Associate United States An amazing place to start & grow your career People really do live and breathe the values, especially transparency. Great work atmosphere and feedback culture. Amazing place to kick start your career and figure things out with great colleagues. No company is perfect, but I think Wise's flaws are super easy to forgive. The only issue from my time there was mostly related to people in management roles who had been at the company for ages and simply were not ever fired. In general, they like giving people another chance here, which is great, but I think they were overdoing it and a lot of people ended up lifting the weight for others. (they should be stricter with hiring and firing) Transparency, amazing team atmosphere, truly global and flat in structure, very empowering. You get the chance to truly grow. LOTS of competent people, but also a lot of people that really shouldn't still be there 0.0 0.0 4.0 5.0 5.0 4.0 3.0 3.0 Mar 24th, 2023 01:05AM Mar 24th, 2023 01:05AM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services
lon:wise https://www.indeed.com/cmp/wise-6/reviews Jan 18th, 2023 10:43AM Open Open Open Wise Localisation London Toxic leadership The status quo at Wise is that toxic leaders (who became 'leaders' with zero people skills) make things up, humiliate you and gaslight you to undermine your confidence and credibility. They also favour people who have been there for years, even when they underperform or receive formal complaints. Their own leaders don't act to change the status quo - it's easier to accept, close their eyes and continuously replace good employees. There's a wave of senior people leaving at the moment and is a sign of poor decision-making, lack of transparency and low fairness in the company. 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services

A lot of things were done; just a shame there was little honesty from some of the leaders. Too much emphasis on turnover of staff - who thought it was bad to have low turnover? Underhanded moves to 'manage' people out of the business because they had raised uncomfortable questions. OK pay, mixed schedules, annual trips to Estonia Healthcare could have been better. 0.0 0.0 3.0 4.0 4.0 2.0 3.0 3.0 Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services

lon:wise https://www.indeed.com/cmp/wise-6/reviews Oct 16th, 2022 10:18PM Open Open Open Wise Customer Service Representative Tampa, FL Bad training and high expectation on the quality of work The company provides a huge ton of training in a short period of time and put you on the phone right away. They provide the training with people that are not qualified for. Within 4 months In the company they make you train the new hires. You should read about 20 to 30 emails daily before your shift starts but you cannot do overtime( meaning you need to read it before you shift starts and get no paid for it ) . The currency around the world changes the way its paid every day, and you need to be aware of it daily. If you don't, read the emails, Y’ll probably give the wrong info to the customer . If you do that it you count against you( even if you say you didn’t know about that, they will tell that the info was in the email of the day that you did not read it . They give a little training with almost teenagers employers that has no professional atitude and curses on the training . It is a LGBq+ company with people that comes to work with red, blue hairs, shorts, pajamas, whatever they fell Like to express their atitude or even with tails hanging behind their pants ( animal lovers ) nothing against it, but is too distracting and you cannot make any eye contact or you will be reported because you are judging. Is not a good job and the stress level is unbelievable. I don’t recommend this company. I can’t wait to find another job. 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 2.0 1.0 Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services

Coworkers were great, work life balance was truly stressed, the company’s reaction to Covid was handled swiftly and easily: we all had backpacks, laptops, head sets, adapters and foreign power adapters. One day the company told us to go home and take what we needed and they’d let us know when they reopened offices. So planned for and we’ll done. 0.0 0.0 4.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM Feb 20th, 2023 03:30PM TransferWise Technology Software & Computer Services
