Pros

- Start up vibe makes room for you to make your mark, drive change and be part of the company's future - People are very warm and caring, I laugh every day and feel like I've joined a family - Days fly by and I am never bored - Pay is excellent

Cons

If you don't like the "work hard/play hard" mentality, this will not be for you. Intensity, push for results and go-go-go makes this exciting but, for some, this could be a bad fit. If you want to fade into the woodwork, WEX isn't for you.
