Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, England
Process
It was a good process and I had an overall positive experience until the last interview. The feedback I received was not that much related to the questions that were asked during the interview. In fact, the language in the feedback was excessively aggressive and opinionated, considering the length of the interview. I am happy to see those red flags at the final stage.
Questions
The first technical interview was practical, involving the implementation of 2-3 classes for a small scenario. The second one was system design. This was followed by product interviews, which were typical. The final interview, occurring after the product interviews, focused on cultural fit.

Wise Work Experiences
- 5.0Nice Wfh, Bad CollaborationSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeLondon, England, United KingdomOctober 10, 2024Pros: My experience at Wise has been very nice. It luckily still has work-from-home policies. It also has work-from-another-country policies. The salary is alright. Can't complain.Cons: It's difficult to work cross-team. People aren't interested in anything but their team's projects, and there's rarely bandwidth to pick up requests from other teams.
