Pros

I’ve been at Airwallex for over 5 years, and it’s been a really solid experience for me. I joined as an engineer and got promoted pretty quickly into a lead role, so I’ve always felt that strong performance is noticed here. The best part has probably been the growth. I’ve had a lot of chances to take ownership, work on interesting problems, and learn from smart people around me. If you’re someone who likes moving fast and taking initiative, there’s a lot of opportunity here. It’s not perfect, but I’ve genuinely grown a lot both as an engineer and as a leader during my time here.

Cons

Things move quickly, and priorities can shift, so it helps to be comfortable with change.

Pros

High autonomy and agency. As a senior IC I have leadership's trust in driving my work, engaging with partner executives and generating new ideas and partnerships. Clear line of sight into how my work positively impacts the company. I can draw the line between my effort and that enabling a small or large part of our success. Diverse product and partner work. I work with large and small partners and across our entire product offering, which keeps my day to day fresh and diverse. Great people, all hard working, smart and well credentialed.

Cons

Global team makes for frequent night time calls, if something can't be handled over Slack. Hard driving. There's lots to do and big ambitions, so everyone is spread thin working on high priority/impact projects.
