      Pros

      I’ve had the pleasure of working at WP Engine for the past few years and it has been a great experience. The company truly values its employees, fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment where everyone feels heard and respected. The company provides great opportunities for career advancement. There’s a strong emphasis on continuous learning and they offer resources and programs to help you enhance your skills and reach your professional goals. The work-life balance here is fantastic. It's remote friendly, we have really great benefits, a wellness program and generous time off. Overall, WP Engine is a fantastic place to work.

      Cons

      There are no major cons to speak of. Like any growing company, there are occasional challenges, but the leadership team handles them with transparency and a focus on improving processes.

      Pros

      Lots of support from management. I always felt like I was heard. Plenty of support from my teammates. The CEO is an amazing person.

      Cons

      Customers only reach out because there are issues with their sites; causing them to be upset most of the time. Tough job if you are not used to remote work.

      We appreciate you taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. While we're glad you had an overall positive experience in regards to feeling supported by your manager, teammates, and feel Heather, our CEO is an amazing person. We agree! We are sorry to hear you didn't feel like there were opportunities for promotions. We know you no longer work here at WP Engine, but if you have any other thoughts you'd like to share so that we can learn more about what could've gone better, you're welcome to reach out to anybody on our Employee Experience Team to do so. Thank you again and we wish you the best in future endeavors.

      Pros

      • Good people • Good work/life balance and flexibility - remote first with local hubs for those living nearby • Interesting work and ownership of solutions • Core values are good ideals

      Cons

      • Yearly "re-orgs" include layoffs, so while you think your job is secure, it could be unexpectedly eliminated overnight - managers included • Overly focused on profit over employees or customer experience (e.g. benefit programs being cut and diminishing investment into human support, which used to be the lifeblood of the company) - possible consequence of private equity / Silver Lake • No one goes into the office, so even if you're near a hub, there's not a lot of actual face time working next to people and it's difficult to get to know people outside of your team and directly-associated teams • They're not interested in keeping or training up early-career software engineers, which seems very short-sighted and goes against "built for growth" • With the laser focus on the next shiny thing, tech debt and cruft accumulate faster than can be addressed, and the context behind older systems fades over time making them progressively harder to maintain or migrate off
