Shifting every semester with layoffs

Pros

HR team in Brazil is the best, creates a sense of community and everyone helps each other. Maybe Digital team also works fine, but IT is trying to reinvent itself with AI.

Cons

Teams in IT are being reduced and merged, before the new AI team have any kind of deliverables. This is slowing down the company, and creating a lot of uncertainty.

Toxic Culture, Great People, Going Nowhere

Pros

Excellent benefits and 401k match. Startup-type energy means you will earn a lot of job experience in a short period of time. Some of the best people I have ever met work here.

Cons

Very toxic and political culture. I can only speak for HR, where it is very back-stabby and the leadership team is run like a high school popularity contest. Constant re-orgs, flip-flopping of initiatives, moving goalposts when it comes to your own performance and career advancement, etc. all combine to create a frustrating and tiring experience. Internal promotions in HR are almost nonexistent unless it’s to a leadership position, which is the only way to move up at WEX. Just know what you’re getting yourself into before accepting an offer, especially in HR

They put too many chips on AI and it shows

Pros

Remote work, flex schedule, good amount of PTO.

Cons

Laid off the QA department in February 2025 and the quality of our releases has only gotten worse. Leadership has little self-awareness of the cause of this trajectory and has opted to throw AI at the problem. So far, so bad.
