Pros: There are a lot of pros: * Wise actually makes the world better. I'd been a customer myself for a couple of years before joining, and it's cool to know that your work contributes to something important. * Company culture, autonomy, trust, freedom – it's super important for me. Teams are autonomous, you get to decide what you're going to build next. You're not just a coder; you actually discuss and contribute to the roadmap. * Lots of room for growth and people to learn from. * Amazing people. * Good salaries. * You feel that the company cares about you. * Reasonable work-life balance. * Business trips (if you want to!). * Hybrid remote work is possible (depending on a team, but the company seems really flexible in terms of this). * You are treated as an adult, no micromanagement. * It's just a nice feeling to go to work every day. I haven't had it for a long time. * Company events, if you're into that. One of the best (or probably the best) jobs I've ever had.

Cons: It's really hard to come up with some, but: * Autonomous teams may not be everyone's element. Sometimes there might be a lack of coordination, and there is a need for horizontal alignment between the teams, not just top-down management (and it's cool, but if you're used to hierarchic companies, it might be challenging at first). * Since teams are autonomous, a lot depends on your team. Maybe I have such a great experience because I got into a very good team. So ask important questions during the interview.

Pros: Smart colleagues, great work atmosphere.

Cons: Moving too fast is sometimes overwhelming.

Pros: Teams are largely autonomous. You can have an effect on the team's direction and what you'll be working on. Lots of growth opportunities.

Cons: With a lot of small autonomous teams, coordinating larger initiatives can be a bit difficult.
