Pros

Unlimited PTO that you will have to give back by working on the weekends and over 11 hours a day.

Cons

Unfortunately, wrike is like a piece of plastic: it looks shiny and great from the outside but when you look closer to it, you can see it's cheap. Their moto should be: "why making it simple?? when it can be complicated!" Most of the nice reviews you are reading here, are written by new hires, because HR is asking during the first month of the onboarding process to write a review on glassdoor, so of course since you've just been hired, you will write something nice! My experience working there was horrible: I've worked with rude, disrespectful and mean people, like I've never had before! you are pressured and under high stress. I've been more than nice to this company and they treated me like trash. There are a lot of jobs available right now and you can see wrike is hiring a lot, why? because a lot of people are leaving this company. I had ex co workers reaching out to me recently asking me about wrike and I told them to not apply there, that they would regret it.

We are sorry to hear you did not get the Wrike experience that we strive to give all of our employees. That said, there are a few areas that you mentioned where we would like to clarify. We offer all of our US employees an unlimited PTO policy so they can take time for rest and recovery when it is needed most. All of our sales team members are encouraged to work a regular 40-hour work week, and to limit any overtime unless it is absolutely necessary. Sales reps may choose to put in extra hours in order to maximize earnings against Wrike’s generous compensation plan, but weekend work is never required and is not part of our culture. Our mission is “do the best work of your life” and we are helping people all over the world do just that so they can get back to what matters most to them. In addition to our open PTO policy, we are also known for our incredible people, who truly are what makes Wrike a great place to work. While it’s uncommon to hear feedback such as yours, we regularly run 360 evaluations on all of our leaders, which allows team members a forum to provide direct and anonymous feedback to managers, who are then held accountable for implementing an action plan based on said feedback. If you wish to further discuss your concerns or provide suggestions you can reach out to us at hr-us@team.wrike.com.

Pros

Free lunch every day. Dog Friendly

Cons

They are going through some management changes and a lot things have changed on the sales teams recently. They make promotion promises to employees and don't honor those promises. Unless you've been with the company for a long time, or you land in a good patch, you're screwed. You only get a very short amount of time to prove yourself. If you don't do well right from the start, regardless of the circumstances, they will let you go with no notice and no explanation. There were a number of dedicated, hard working reps who were let go while I was there. Also, if you've done well, but have a bad month and hit below 50%, you get put on PIP. Training is incredibly intense. If you fail bootcamp, you get fired, no joke. There are also continuing certifications that you also have to study for and pass, or be put on plan. Benefits are just okay. There are no stock options and no 401K matching.

We appreciate your feedback, and are always looking for ways we can continue to be a great place to work. While we regret to hear that your experience at Wrike has been less than ideal, we’d like to provide some points of clarification that might be helpful for you and/or others. Personal Success and Economic Growth are fundamental aspects of our Sales Success Culture, which is why we offer performance-based promotions to all of our team members who continue to meet performance standards and exemplify what it means to be a positive contribution to the Wrike culture. In 2019 alone, the US sales team saw nearly 40% of its members promote to new roles. We take great pride in our sales enablement program, which includes our new hire onboarding workshop. This workshop includes a blend of elearning, on the job activities, and video pre-work focusing on foundational content regarding our solution, sales tools, and our Buy Process. The purpose of the bootcamp is to set our team members up for success and equip them with the tools they need to sell effectively before they even get on the phones. This is a requirement of the role for all sales team members, and is openly discussed during the recruitment process. Follow-on certifications are issued only when there is a major new product release or change to sales process. We understand that in sales, monthly performance may fluctuate, and our general practice is to evaluate the prior 3 months of post-ramp performance along with activity metrics before considering a formal performance improvement plan. This is part of a progressive performance improvement process, in which coaching is used as the first line of defense, and leaders are also required to commit to specific objectives when engaging in a performance plan for their team members. The terms of this program are openly communicated to employees, and we find that the majority of our team members are able to come out of this improvement process with a stronger understanding of what it takes to be successful in their role. We continue to prioritize benefits that our employees have come to know as staples of the Wrike culture, including unlimited PTO, employer-paid health premiums for employees, and daily catered lunches. As we grow, we are always evaluating our benefits package and other market offerings for new opportunities.
