      Great Remote Mission Led Company with great culture

      Product marketing manager

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - We get to meet each other in retreats in fun locations (Miami, Dominican Republic, Senegal and more) it's a lot of fun! - Values we appreciate are ownership, embarrassing honesty, and maximising for energy, which means that people that like to get work done effectively without much processes and politics thrive at Sendwave. - We're still a small-medium size company and yet extremely diverse with people from US, UK, Africa, EU and LATAM - We focus on our mission, and everyone has a real voice in the company - Our team works together really well

      Cons

      - The world of remittences became more competitive in the last few years, and so our mission isn't as exciting as it used to be, and our impact on immigrants' lives isn't as big as it used to be - We're growing fast, which is great but also come with some culture changes - We were bought by another remittences company 2 years ago, and while for now we stay our own separate team and it didn't have much impact on us, it might have more impact in the future.

      Pros

      Fully remote work, fantastic benefits, very good salaries. You work with fantastic sensitive, intelligent, and committed people who are all trying to make this a great place to work while trying to help those who we serve.

      Cons

      It's a startup, so it is a bit messy, things change quickly and often! You have to like this

      Mission-Driven Team that Feels Like Family

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Mission Driven team focussed on delivering access to fast and affordable transfers for the global diaspora. - 100% Remote Workspace with Quarterly Retreats. - Competitive Compensation + Vacation Allowances. - Culture of transparent and collaborative work processes that stretch cross functionally. I've worked with Sendwave for just over a year now after leaving my last job with a large bank in Canada. The culture and vibe at Sendwave is completely different and lacks the bureaucratic and laggy norms that plagued my last job. Every project completed comes with a sense of really contributing in building out the company and project. The people are fantastic, warm and open and onboarding to the team last year was an incredibly easy process compared to how intimidating other processes have been in the past.

      Cons

      Working Remotely is a catch-22, and while largely a fun task - more could be done to make the day to day more collaborative than independent.

      Thank you for taking the time to review your work experience with Sendwave. We do pride ourselves on how we live our mission and put our users first, and the ways we reward our employees for their hard work. We are continuing to work on ways of connecting our remote teams beyond our quarterly in-person retreats, by rolling out initiatives like our video happy hours and wellness initiatives, including team meditations. We’ll keep experimenting to find methods of keeping our teams close.
