Pros

- Amazing, smart and hardworking colleagues - Good product & cool clients.

Cons

There is absolutely no process or strategy to achieve KPIs, the goal posts are constantly being moved, with a like or lump it attitude. There is a cycle of hire and fire / push out in order to blame these employees for the reason unrealistic targets aren't being met. Most higher management are completely out of their depth, specifically the CEO & COO. Good work and effort is not recognized or appreciated. There is absolutely zero room for growth here, both personally and professionally. It is expected you are an expert and the best of the best at your role, without any guidance, training, or support. Upper management have no respect or appreciation for employees, they are simply a number and nothing more. There are zero perks & benefits working here, it is expected your below average salary and annual leave is enough to keep you happy, motivated, and satisfied. I could truly go on and on about all the cons.

Thank you for your feedback. At Wayleadr, we are proud of our high-performance culture. We set ambitious goals, operate with urgency, and hold ourselves to a standard of excellence — especially those in leadership roles. These expectations drive our success, and we seek team members who thrive in this environment and are committed to being the best at what they do. Our expectations are clearly outlined during the hiring process, reinforced at onboarding, and aligned at the start of each year. We understand that not everyone may find this level of accountability and drive to be the right fit — and that’s okay. We invest heavily in training, development, and support to empower our team. However, we hire smart, capable professionals who take ownership of their success. We provide guidance, not micromanagement. We expect our team to take initiative, ask questions, and seek out the many opportunities available to grow. Our leadership team stands behind our employees and their contributions. We promote from within, recognize exceptional work, and create opportunities for those who step up. Respect and accountability are two-way streets — success at a fast-growing company requires both. We understand that Wayleadr may not be the right fit for everyone, and that’s part of the journey. We appreciate your contributions and wish you the very best in your next chapter.
