Pros

Everyone pretended to be perky and bubbly which was nice

Cons

This company is run by some managers who are female and if you're male watch out. If you're wet behind the ears straight from college they will take you. So do apply if you want to be indoctrinated into a cult like company, that has book club that teaches you how not to whine and blame your employer, ever. They will coddle and mentor females and leave the men out. They are very very resistant to change, which I why I had to leave. My expertise fell to the wayside because I was older than 21 and I knew too much. Also, don't ask to many questions that show just how stupid they are, they hate being called out. I was so excited to start there. Work life balance is for upper management not for new hires. HR was good every other department was not. By the time I left, I was demoralized, had mental health issues and was just happy to GO! Apply at your own risk, over 23 years old don't waste your time. You may be thinking you will start your career at WorkWave but its a very cult like environment. If you're ok being under these ladies' thumb, you may work a while here. It's not for me, thanks! I won't be put in a box by folks who don't know what they're doing. They replace people like changing clothes.

I'm very sorry to hear this, as it certainly doesn't align with our company values or the expectations of our teams. We do wish you had shared your concerns while you were an active employee either with your manager, HR, on our anonymous surveys or your exit interview so that we could have addressed them in a collaborative and supportive manner - especially since we've not received feedback like this from others in the past. We wish you all the best in the future.

Pros

WorkWave is truly one of the best work environments I’ve experienced. The company has strong momentum, a modern product vision, and a culture that makes you feel excited about where things are headed. What stands out most is the forward‑looking strategy, supportive teams, and leadership that communicates openly and invests in people. There’s real trust, autonomy, and a shared sense of ownership across the organization.

Cons

Truly none worth noting here.

Pros

The unlimited pto and remote work is the only thing that keeps people

Cons

Basically the entire leadership and manangement. 2 years ago they company went under a massive leadership shift and it was not for the better. Workwave used to have an amazing culture people actually enjoyed working there. Now your just another number that leadership doesnt care about. Your expected to work late and weekends at the result of poor planning by manangement, work load is way to much, and they are constantly layoffs. How many layoffs do they need before they reach their goal? everyones afraid for their job. Im convinced the positive reviews are from the leadership themselves to boost the ratings here. Not the place it once was and its a shame. The pay is very low too for the staff theyve had for years.
