Pros

- Average pay - Health insurance, 401(K) is decent - Good, friendly, helpful people - Free catered lunch twice a week and lots of snacks/drinks in the community kitchen

Cons

- Sloppy, old school training practices vs simply training agents with senior agents to make super agents - KPI system is ridiculous and QA dispute process is extremely aggressive and discouraging towards everyone - Difficult WFM system - it's difficult to take time off

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, we really appreciate it. We're pleased to hear that you're enjoying the benefits received at Wise as well as the people you work with. However, we're sorry to hear that you're not having a good experience in Wise, particularly when it comes to training and processes. The good news is that we currently have a project underway called TimeWise, to address some of the challenges you've raised around managing time off, thanks to feedback such as yours. We expect to see improvements in these areas over the coming months and we tackle some of the underlying issues. On KPIs, our goal is to help our customers as quickly as possible when they need assistance and setting KPIs helps ensure we’re able to meet this goal and identify gaps where we may need to invest in the future. Implementing KPIs aims to provide clear expectations and support, helping team members align their efforts with our overall goals. We believe that a well-structured performance management framework not only aids individual growth but also enhances teamwork and collaboration. These KPIs are designed to not be burdensome but to guide and support, paving the way for personal development and improved outcomes. For our QA team, these metrics are crucial in ensuring we consistently deliver top-notch service, ultimately enhancing our customers' experiences and mitigating risk. However, we're committed to refining these processes and welcome further discussion to ensure they serve everyone effectively. Regarding training, it would be helpful to understand more about your suggestion to run training with senior agents, to see if this is something we could consider if it's not in place already. If you are comfortable, we'd encourage you to reach out to your Lead or local People Advisor to discuss this further. Nicola

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.
