Pros

It is a recognised brand.

Cons

The work was disorganised, unpredictable, and subject to constant changes. The person-in-charge was difficult to work with, and inconsistent with feedback. I understood that on a wider scale, the team/ leaders had changed or were terminated (sometimes abruptly) through restructuring or other reasons, which contributed to the unpredictability of the work, how it was structured, and changes in the broader strategy. I also received notifications/ updates on the work beyond hours (early mornings/ late nights/ through the weekend). This isn't uncommon and it may not at all be an issue, but expect that this is likely part of their culture or requirements.

We appreciate you sharing your perspective. You’re right that our pace is fast, and business needs require us to pivot quickly. However, we’ll continue to prioritise better managing the human impact of these changes. Constant change without clear context is disruptive and stressful, which is an experience we never want for our team. To that end, we are committed to clearly communicating the "why" behind strategic shifts to prevent unnecessary churn. Regarding work-life balance, while our global team collaborates across time zones, we'll continue to ensure our team members feel empowered to protect their personal time. Thank you again for your honesty. This feedback is valuable as we continue to scale.

Pros

High autonomy and agency. As a senior IC I have leadership's trust in driving my work, engaging with partner executives and generating new ideas and partnerships. Clear line of sight into how my work positively impacts the company. I can draw the line between my effort and that enabling a small or large part of our success. Diverse product and partner work. I work with large and small partners and across our entire product offering, which keeps my day to day fresh and diverse. Great people, all hard working, smart and well credentialed.

Cons

Global team makes for frequent night time calls, if something can't be handled over Slack. Hard driving. There's lots to do and big ambitions, so everyone is spread thin working on high priority/impact projects.

Pros

Working at Airwallex has been an incredibly rewarding experience, especially as part of the sales team. The company is in a very strong growth phase, which makes it an exciting place to be. 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.

Cons

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.
