      One of the most interesting exoperiences of my career. A great opportunity to work in a truly multi-national company

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Some things that work for WU are the great brand it has, the business it does. Apart from this at in individual level things that worked for me were compensation, benefits, work life balance, travel

      Cons

      WU can work towards improving it's strategy. The start can be made by more competent people handling important roles. More points that need change are 1. Bureaucracy 2. Highly political environement 3. Slow pace of change 4. too many approvals to implement anything 5. absolutely no career growth 6. very little focus on development 7. no empowerment 8. everything comes and has to be done only from the US 9. Frequent lay-off's

      Hoards of Middle Management

      Pros

      I cannot emphasize enough that the pay is really good, especially considering the very low expectations.

      Cons

      Depending on your ethics (this might be considered one of the Pros) 80% of the Sr. Management and above on my team worked less than 20 hours/week. Hoards of middle management. Becoming out of date very quickly. No Accountability. No Direction.
