Pros

13 dollars foodpanda a day.

Cons

Quite unfair that SG employees are expected to work in office 5 days a week while other locations (US, EU, AU) have hybrid. Do they think people in singapore need to be micromanaged?

Thank you for your feedback. We understand the in-office setup is not for you. As a rapidly growing business, we've found that face-to-face collaboration, support, and feedback are key to employee success. Workplace policies vary by region based on local team needs and business requirements, and we're always evaluating how we work across our offices as the company evolves. We want our people to feel trusted, not micromanaged. We've been investing in giving teams more clarity through structured planning and OKRs so that people have the context to make good decisions closer to the work. If that's not your experience today, we want to hear about it. We value our customers, and if you're seeing gaps between our standards and what's happening in practice, that's something we'd want to understand better. We'd encourage you to raise these points directly with your manager or People team partner. Feedback like this is more actionable when we can dig into the specifics together.

Over the past few years, Airwallex has scaled rapidly, processing hundreds of billions in payments annually. There are clear career progression opportunities if you perform. Leadership is supportive of internal mobility, and high performers are recognized and promoted. You’re surrounded by smart, driven colleagues who are collaborative and willing to help, which creates a motivating environment day to day.

Like most high-growth companies, things can move fast and change quickly, which may not suit everyone. There can be pressure to perform given the pace and ambition of the company.
