Pros

A good office location in the heart of Berlin

Cons

1. Very poor working environment. Specially some people are racist and does not respect people from different nationality. Just an advice to HR please take some action against such employees 2. No innovation no brain to be used.It is a demand supply company. Customers demand they supply. 3. Good employees leave the company as soon as they realize this is not the right place to work. 4. No responsibility from people teams regarding onboarding, monthly performance, Expedition.etc. 5. Managers are just to deploy work. Lack of leadership roles in guiding the tasks.(hence a lot of people leave every month) 6. It's a loop every month 5 people leave on average and 5 new a been taken. No feed back is been taken about the past experiences. 7. Management is really lacking 8. Never feels like a family as everyone here is to earn and no one considers it as a long term goal to be part of the organization as it is poorly managed. 9. If the candidates are not well deserving. Please don't hire them a suggestion to the team. 10. Had a bad experience with the manager as he decided to terminate the contract without any notice. 11. A lack of communication between the own team. 12. If you are considering joining at the start of your career. Please i suggest don't do it as there is no patience by mangers as no time is given to learn new things.

Pros

Pay is OK. Berlin has tons of startups.

Cons

From 2022-2024, went through 4 CEOs, 5 CROs, 3 CFOs, 2 HR heads. Each one and each combination had a different way to run the company. No common end goal.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective and for the years you spent at Wire. The period you mention was a phase of significant change for the company. Building and positioning a technology company in a complex space like secure collaboration often requires adjustments along the way. While that can feel challenging internally, these phases are also an important part of building a stronger foundation for the future. We appreciate your contribution during that time and wish you all the best going forward.
