Wise reviews

Minimal to no structured training - onboarding primarily relied on internal Wiki pages with little real guidance or hands-on support. Performance-based terminations during probation felt confusing and unfair, as no clear KPIs or measurable standards were provided for evaluation. Despite asking multiple times for clarity, I received no response, leaving me without direction or actionable feedback. Leadership inconsistency: The team lead acknowledged it took her 3–4 months to fully understand the role and produce narratives, yet new hires are dismissed within weeks for “performance.” The lead, based in Europe, had limited availability for the Austin team and provided little constructive feedback. Leadership also appeared very young and inexperienced, lacking the professional maturity to effectively guide and support new hires. Very little meaningful work available; many staff in similar roles appeared underutilized, suggesting misaligned hiring strategies. Over-hiring followed by abrupt cuts created instability and uncertainty across the team. Abrupt dismissals leave employees without income security despite leaving stable roles to join the company, with little consideration of the impact on individuals and families. When asked for valid reasons behind termination, the explanation was simply “performance,” with no clear evidence or breakdown provided.
