A place where you can thrive, if you fit the culture
A place where you can thrive, if you fit the culture
At TransferWise, you are given the opportunity to forge your own path, use your initiative, and challenge the ideas of others. Expect your ideas and decisions to be dissected, but always in a constructive way. There is a huge opportunity to learn from the best across many different fields.
The culture here of autonomy and, some might say, politics can be difficult for some people. Convincing others to buy into your ideas as they try to push their own can be a challenge. In the end, the work produced is of top quality, but sometimes you end up discussing what to do for longer than you should.
Formalize the roles and expectations of leads, and help them balance these against their day job. Streamline some HR processes to make everyone's lives easier. Don't let the culture we have slip!
