Pros: There's some good technology, and a lot of good engineers you can work with and build some things.

Cons: Typical scale-up treadmill issues are deeply rooted in low compensation. Incompetent, low-caliber managers and workplace politics are the things that make Wise NOT a place you want to work for. The business is overselling the dream of 'changing the world' (ultimately for someone else's fat pocket) and has created a cult to keep people overdelivering. Couple this with woke/identity politics and reverse discrimination in the name of 'USA style diversity' because it helps funding, and you have the perfect toxic laboratory.

Pros: Good salary, training, and benefits, etc., are all good.

Cons: Like all companies, Covid is making it harder to work remotely.

Pros: - Get to travel a couple of times a year to other offices.

Cons: Wow, a 4+ rating, this must be a great workplace. Want to spot their fake reviews? Just see their Google reviews, which went from 3-ish in Jan '22 to 4.5-ish in 2023, and a very similar thing with their Glassdoor reviews. Trust me, even I'm very ignorant to negative reviews, assuming a handful of people face these kinds of situations, but I can’t be any farther from reality. Highly political work environment, especially because there are people in (mid/junior) management levels who have been there for more than 4-5 years. They form a kind of cult, and if you are not in the cult, you won't survive here. You raise your concerns, and you are out before you even know where it went wrong. Avoid the "Regional Expansion" teams at all costs. You might get the most awful product/eng work of your life. Very poor quality eng work, poor tech stack, poor infrastructure, poor deliverables, and poor management of things in Regional teams. The dreaded "Autonomous Teams," AAAAAHH, a pretty screwed-up thing. There are a lot of great reviews about this. Give them a read because they are well put, better than I can try (if those reviews are still not taken down). Check Team Blind reviews once before making up your mind. This review might sound biased, but trust me, you'll come back someday and say thanks.
