Pros

- Great PTO & Sick Time Structure - Hybrid Setup is a great perk - Stock options for many employees - Tampa Office is nice and was recently renovated - Team lunches and events

Cons

- Not much room for growth in Tampa Office. For the small amount of growth that is available, I have seen it mainly be based on "who" you know, with people often promoting friends over those who may be a better fit for the role. - Company is very openly political, and tends to lean towards one side of this only, regardless if you want to avoid political discussion. This can play into cliques forming in the office based on your beliefs, with some beliefs getting more attention and affection than others from management. I have also myself seen this play a role in internal promotions, even though the company would formally disagree on that. - Office is normally loud, with management being okay with employees playing their own music on speakers. - There have been many numerous payroll issues during my time there which has made life very difficult for lower-leveled employees like Customer Support who live more paycheck-to-paycheck. - Customer Support structure is constantly changing. It shifted for me the first time very shortly after being hired, which greatly changed my day-to-day work life. I was not informed or hinted of this at all during the hiring process. - In my opinion, the internal information layout is very unorganized and outdated in the software being used for it. This makes life a lot more difficult as a Customer Support agent, especially when it comes to being graded on cases by their Quality Assurance team. - I am not a fan of their Quality Assurance grading system, and I have not spoken with one agent at the company who is. It is very harsh, and grades extremely low for minor mistakes. I have known multiple agents who were not able to keep their job due to this, and they were hard workers with good attitudes. - Pay is not great with no annual increases like many jobs offer.

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.
