Our Benefits

Sharing in our success

We offer Wise stock in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to everyone who works for us, as we’re building Wise together and want you to share in the success of our company on a mission. We’ve been profitable for 4 years now and we don’t plan on slowing down.  

Stock is a long-term incentive for people who want to join us and make a positive, important change in the world. You can find out more about how it works here (note that we no longer issue stock options): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58lrU9NUfgo&t=1s.

It’s really important to us that we grow our company responsibly and sustainably for our people and for our customers

It's a marathon, not a sprint

We know working at Wise is challenging and all our people go above and beyond for our customers.

Because of this, after 4 years at Wise, you’ll have the option to take a paid sabbatical: 6 weeks paid time off and £1,000 financial support in addition to your annual leave.

This is to reward the time and effort that you’ve put into Wise and give you stretch of time to fully switch off and reflect back on your journey.

Flexibility and trust

We positively encourage flexible working. Whether it’s time off for children, working from home, school plays, volunteering or just life admin – we know flexibility is essential. We offer a hybrid working approach, as well as the opportunity to work from (almost) anywhere in the world for up to 90 days a year!

Here success is measured by the impact you have, not the amount of time you spend in the office. So chat to your team lead and work out what works best for you whether that’s different hours or working from home. Here, you’re trusted to do the right thing.

A home away from home

We create office environments that mean people enjoy coming in and where everyone can do their best work. All our offices are pet-friendly and true to our Estonian roots, almost all our offices have a sauna!

There’s free daily breakfasts and weekly team lunches. If you have a specific interest or hobby in mind, you can gather a group of interested co-workers and we’ll subsidise the activity. You name it, we’ll support it.

What people are saying about Wise

Audit Bowl

Audit Associate

When do you know it’s time to change firms? I’ve got an opportunity to switch where I would be working on more types of clients that I’m interested in. Still waiting on the offer but salary wise it should be about $90k vs my current $83k. Benefits similar. I really like the people I work with now and most of my clients, but want to focus on different industries than I can where I am. For what it’s worth my impressions of the new firm have been great so far.

Some great ones, like the Mobile Wiser scheme which allows working anywhere in the world for 3 months. But I think it falls back on the basics, no dentist, no gym memberships, 25 days holiday and 5% pension. I think the benefits are very tailored to being young without lots of priorities. They are also getting much stricter on working from home which is really disappointing.
