Pros

Met a few really good people/professionals but they left as soon as the reality of what the company was became apparent

Cons

Unethical employee and business practices Complete lack of accountability on any level Disfunction on every level and in every department Disconnected or inadequate leadership No vision or mission **beware of generic positive reviews - from prior review on Glassdoor (see Unethical employee and business practices listed above) - Management and HR have been asking employees to review the company on here to boost ratings and providing prizes for doing it. Beware the good reviews.

Thank you for sharing your concerns. Please be assured that transparency is a priority at Wrike and an area that we are looking to continually improve. While there is a clear mission and vision for the organization, your feedback underscores the fact that these are important components for our employees to understand, and we will be looking to enhance communication around this. Additionally, as one of our core values, collaboration is at the heart of our culture and any concerns that we could be doing more in this area are heard and taken into consideration. In regards to your final comment, I'd like to reinforce Wrike's response to the previous review you mentioned: "I want to assure you that the company does not incentivize employees to write positive reviews about Wrike. We do encourage employees to express their honest feedback - both positive and constructive - and make sure they are aware that doing so is entirely voluntary. Further, all Glassdoor posts are anonymous and neither management nor HR has visibility into who has written them." I will add to this that new hires are invited to complete a voluntary Glassdoor review at any time as part of their on-boarding process. This item is clearly designated as "OPTIONAL" in their new hire checklist, and there is no communication beyond the checklist item driving new or existing employees to Glassdoor. Your advice is always welcomed and will allow us to continue improving the Wrike experience. Please reach out to hr-us@team.wrike.com if you'd like to share your suggestions.

Pros

Supportive Management: Leadership is approachable, transparent, and genuinely invested in employee growth and success. Regular feedback and open communication foster a positive work environment. Collaborative Team: The team culture is highly collaborative, with colleagues who are both talented and willing to help. There’s a strong sense of camaraderie and shared purpose. Positive Workplace Culture: Wrike promotes a culture of inclusivity, innovation, and continuous improvement. Employee well-being and engagement are clearly prioritized. Industry-Leading Product: The product itself is robust, flexible, and consistently evolving to meet customer needs. It’s rewarding to represent a solution that delivers real value to clients.

Cons

Structured Oversight: At times, there is a high level of oversight and process adherence, which can limit autonomy in decision-making. While this ensures consistency, it may occasionally slow down innovation or responsiveness. Limited Training on Procurement Processes: There is a noticeable gap in training related to the procurement process, which can create challenges during customer renewals. Enhanced resources and clearer guidance in this area would help streamline operations and improve the overall customer experience.

Pros

Strengthen transparency and consistency in communication, particularly around job security and performance expectations

Cons

I was at the company for a year and only met my department executive once. There’s basically zero communication between departments, and that disconnect slows everything down, especially between marketing and sales, and it’s why the company will never be on the same level as other project management platforms. The lack of accountability and communication at the top just turns into laziness across the whole company. They’re way too focused on AI, and I honestly don’t think they’ll be able to use it effectively before they’re forced to sell to private equity. There is one executive in the GTM department who is extremely controlling and unprofessional everyone says it, and multiple people have had to leave the department or switch even leave the company because of him. People get dragged into projects that have nothing to do with their job, and executives have admitted they’re replacing U.S. employees with cheaper international hires. If they keep doing this, cutting employees and relying on AI, the company is only going to keep declining.
