Pros
- Good to see so many negative examples in people management so I can learn what not to do in the future. - We have a fantastic culture in Airwallex. A winning Chinese culture in which people are expected to overdeliver/overwork with unfair compensation. - Fintech is a good niche to get your feet into.
Cons
- No employee retention. Smart and ambitious colleagues are leaving one by one. - No employee benefits and bonuses. The only benefit is health insurance. - No career growth as leveling is ambiguous. - Inexperienced managers who are egoistic and only know how to curry favors from the top. They don't really listen to feedback from employees/customers. - No DEI. The underlying rule is to hire ex-consultants and inexperienced people who have a "good" background. Coming from a good school doesn't mean they're smart or competent in the job.
