Pros

Airwallex offers a stimulating work environment that challenges employees to push their limits. If you thrive on tackling complex problems and enjoy being intellectually challenged, this could be a great fit for you. One downside of working at Airwallex is that some leaders tend to favour individuals from their own network. This can create an environment where certain employees receive preferential treatment, potentially hindering career growth for existing employees. Unfortunately, recognition and appreciation at Airwallex might be inconsistent. It appears that unless you are favoured, your efforts may not always be acknowledged or rewarded accordingly. This can create a sense of frustration and demotivation for some employees. Despite the internal challenges, Airwallex boasts a promising product. The company's innovative solutions and services in the fintech]sector have the potential to disrupt the market positively. It's exciting to be part of a team that works on cutting-edge products. While there are some genuinely nice colleagues at Airwallex, it's important to note that not everyone shares the same positive attitude. Some individuals may display cutthroat behaviour in their pursuit of climbing the corporate ladder, which can create a less-than-ideal work environment.

Pros

- Some lovely people - the pay is OK

Cons

- Immature leadership - Very average people in important positions - Fixation on rocket ship emojis and ‘new higher valuation’ distract from real issues about the product and generally awful culture - Fake reviews on glassdoor - check out the 5 star ones all on the same day below - everything seems to be ‘good’ doesn’t it.

Unethical employer and company

Pros

Good Pay for Some: Reasonable salaries if you’re favoured by the big bosses Flexibility Exists: Work flexibility is available, if manager allows it

Cons

Cut-Throat Culture: The workplace is tough, where hard work is often overlooked, and job security is as stable as a house of cards. Unexpected random firings at the spot are not unusual Condescending Management: The big bosses and their confidants act like they know it all, carrying a vibe of superior than supportive. Bigger bosses always win and know better Questionable Practices: The company treads a sketchy line with regulations, often silencing and firing those who question its professional conducts
