Business Outlook

Pros

1. Tons of learning opportunities of building a product and scaling it in various geographies 2. Different challenges everyday which makes it unique and interesting(sometimes stressful though) working at Airwallex 3. Competent and smart colleagues to work with 4. Company is very result driven and quick at taking actions/launching products

Cons

1. Airwallex claims to be a global company, however the business is very much driven by Chinese market. 2. There is a lack of focus and long term vision. Company wants to launch its product basically in all continents around the world, and wants to expand its financial products to lending, issuing, spend management, etc. Seems very ambitious but clearly lacks insights and market research. 3. CEO should trust the employees and give more autonomy. There are more important things for him to focus on. Micromanagement is killing the team morale. 4. Lack diversity of staff hiring (most people are from elite schools or first tier tech/consulting companies)
