      Pros

      - The mission of the company is a meaningful one. It is not just something posted on the website and forgotten. It literally spurs the decisions and actions of all employees from the CEO down. - There is a high degree of autonomy. Even as a relatively new joiner, I am actively encouraged to think of new ways of working, new projects to drive, and new strategies to implement. - Everyone is welcome to give feedback at all levels of the organization. There is even a feedback channel directly related to the app itself, which allows anyone to propose ways to improve. These comments aren't just made and forgotten, they are put directly into product improvement roadmaps and followed-up on by the Top Team. - Compensation is competitive and fair, with a meaningful portion of equity which incentivizes longer term growth and collaboration across teams. - DEI is taken seriously. There are so many engagement/community networks that people can become a part of; even if you do not necessarily identify directly as being from said community. - It's a large, NASDAQ-listed company that still has the feel of a smaller size tech company in terms of openness, flat management, minimal hierarchy, and a genuine teamwork feel.

      Cons

      - The hiring/onboarding process took slightly longer than I would have hoped for (i.e. from accepting the offer to official start day), but part of this can be attributed to me being hiring into a new geographic office, so it was less straight-forward than the typical onboarding.

      Pros

      AI Native from first principles. Colleagues are strong and collaborative; this is the most consistent positive across teams. The mission is concrete: moving cross-border money for people supporting families. It informs prioritization and trade-offs. Scope and responsibility are available early to people who take them. Compensation and benefits are great. The company has a defined strategic direction under new CEO Sebastian Gunningham and is executing against it. Exciting time to be here.

      Cons

      Big org changes as the company reinvent, not for everyone.

      Pros

      The company started off to be great when I joined a few years back. Lots of hands on opportunities, some great people to work with. Benefits are good, people are valued and contributions are seen.

      Cons

      The company really started to go downhills in 2024 when there are constant leadership changes, mission changes, priorities changes and team orgs. Business Managers are starting to act like the "decision-maker" over pretty much all product and marketing decisions. We start to question if the direction we are focusing on is even right. Is it customer-centric still or is it more business-oriented. work life balance is bad stress is high people are no longer valued, heard or seen you know a company is going in a negative direction when you start to see tenured employees to leave, smart people to leave as well.
