Not what they sell

Recommend

Pros

More than one year ago, the company had a complete different culture, more concerned about the people's wellbeing, it was a pleasure working for them back then... however that's not longer the case, further details on cons.

Cons

The company was sold to a new investor, the cultural change was noticeable from day one. They are now more concerned about billing than people, it's awful working here, unfulfilled promises, no meritocracy, not clear paths for internal growth, they are bringing people from outside with better salaries and dont care about the people already hired, the hiring process is a nightmare. People is involved in many internal initiatives, which are not necessarily part of their role, however the company is always ungrateful with people's time and work. Many people has expressed the same concerns in their exit interview, with no plans, actions neither adjustments done. They have converted an awesome place to work into a nightmare place to stay.

Pros

After being with Wizeline for about 5 years, Wizeline now is not just the name of my employer but a part of my life. Wizeline has overcome so many challenges in the past few years. From the bottom of my heart, I am so proud of the achievement of Wizeline today. It is the first time I see how a single company can change a city in such a positive way. Wizeline did not only brought lots of capital, investors, talents, and opportunities in general to Guadalajara but also Wizeline showed the students from Guadalajara a totally different future. I tell my friends that if one day I choose to go back to my hometown, it is because I wish to bring what Bismarck brought to Guadalajara to my hometown.  To be honest, I have had a really tough time in the first few years for various reasons. But there are reasons why I stayed there for close to 5 years.   * Opportunities (Please take this pro from different dimensions)  - Industry: Wizeline has clients from all different industries, which means it opens the opportunities from all those industries. For example, I would never learn so much about the logistics industry if not for working for a great client at Wizeline. The software consultant industry is huge and keeps growing fast. Especially, during the pandemic, many companies have to digitalize their businesses in order to survive, which means more and more diverse opportunities.  - Carrer: We hired over 200 new Wizeliners during the past 12 months and we will grow even faster in the next 12 months. With these many new Wizeliners, more leaders will be needed. If you are the one who owns your growth, you will find a great fit for you at Wizeline.  - Technologies: As I mentioned above, Wizeline has clients from all different industries, which means you have the opportunities to work on different kinds of technologies.  * Transparency: throughout my journey at Wizeline, Wizeline has been very transparent during the good and tough times. I think that is where my security from about the company.  * Access to anyone: I always feel encouraged to talk to anyone I like to in the company, especially the CEO. I bugged him three times during the past three weeks for different reasons and the 1:1s were scheduled just one or two days after I reached out. You will not feel anyone is too far to reach out for a conversation :)

Cons

* There are over 800 Wizeliners but Wizeline is still a startup, growing fast. So you will realize a lot of growing pain. The management team is trying to figure out processes on the way. Depends on your perspective, it can be viewed as a chaotic situation or opportunity.  * Wizeline's clients are from all different industries as I mentioned before but it does not mean you can always pick which clients you work for. So you may have to work on some project that is not 100% aligned with your passion. We are aware of these situations, so certain processes are actually in place to help. For example, we have the processes for engineers to rotate their projects after a certain period of time.  * Manager to reports ratio: Wizeline engineering team grows really fast and we do not have enough managers yet. So you may feel disconnected from your managers sometimes if you do not proactively reach out. But again, it can be chaos or a sign of opportunities depends on your view.

Wizeline is where designers come to lead

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

A true community of practice where designers, their managers, and the company supports career growth. A wide range of design roles permit lateral and horizontal growth: Product, UX, UI, Visual, and Brand designers, including reseachers. Opportunities to work on a wide range of products, working as a member of integrated product teams whose purpose is to define, design, develop, and launch software.

Cons

It's a 2nd stage startup, so there's still some rough spots in terms of strategic alignment, executive communication, and the rest. Most of the company is in a start of the art campus in Guadalajara. There's also design positions in CDMX and APAC, but that's just about it. Compensation is competitive, but Wizeline is not a leader in compensation yet. While design thinking is embraced throughout the organization, these are still early days so there's still situations where your voice, methods, and value system may not be well understood.
