Pros

Fantastic purpose driven organisation making it easier and faster to send money to loved ones. Incredibly rewarding when you meet the many customers using the WorldRemit service and how the ease of service affected their lives sending money home. Very driven and smart people that applaud initiative and empower you to own your priorities and deliver. Career defining experience during my tenure which you only really appreciate when you join another business – most weeks I think of things that I learned at WR from fantastic colleagues and leaders. World class experience !

Cons

Cons are really a mindset – If you own your responsibilities, deliver, and have a growth mindset you will be rewarded with an exciting career in a fast-changing environment.

Pros

Nice office, good location. exposure to a wide range of tasks, opportunity to learn.

Cons

As a former worldremit employee, I use TransferWise... Worldremit product is better and cheaper, but I can not stomach to give them a penny. Horrible company culture, inept HR department, inept management on CS. Very clique place, career development is mostly about politics. Bullies are rewarded, and smart people run away. They can get profitable because CS is huge, and that's because the product have problems, which drive complaints to the roof... What worldremit did? Fix the problems, bring people with new ideas? Nop, They got old fashioned people, with conservative ideas. Start saving money the wrong way... Getting rid of engineers, really? I still talk with friends there, they hate to be there.

Pros

None, was a potential unicorn but it’s trailblazing days are long gone

Cons

Current executive leadership is worst in class across the industry and should be summarily fired by the Board of Directors. They have destroyed the culture, values and talent of the company during their tenure. A company with a 1,000 plus employees with 3 CEOs all based in London is an organizational joke, competing amongst themselves on who can be more arrogant, petty, and narcissistic. None of them has industry knowledge nor any interest in learning. They are an abject lesson in failing forward. These strange creatures of the start up world that manage to convince others that their lack of knowledge, skill, and talent is somehow the right recipe for being put at the helm of a company Voluntary attrition is the highest ever as the leadership doesn’t tolerate when truth is spoken to them. Packages are not competitive, salaries and benefits lag behind every other company in the industry and beyond lip service there’s no true appreciation of talent. This company is slowly circling the drain to its demise
