Wix reviews about "manager"

1. Despite promoting a "No Jerks" policy, certain individuals — including some managers — are allowed to act unprofessionally without facing any real consequences. This behavior is often accepted, or worse, normalized. 2. Office politics are extremely heavy. Getting support for cross-team work often feels more like diplomacy than collaboration, consuming far too much time and energy. 3. Things move slowly. Tasks that would take hours in most companies can easily stretch into days or weeks. 4. There are managers who lack experience and leadership skills, which can cause serious damage to team morale and productivity. 5. There's significant resistance to adopting modern technologies — often rooted in personal job security fears rather than strategic thinking. 6. Salaries are generally below industry standards, especially for roles in R&D.

There are two Wix organizational cultures: one that is toxic in the Marketing department and one that is amazing for the rest. Unfortunately, no salary increase is based on merit, only on manager relationships, resulting in salaries lower than the industry standard. HR is not doing anything about bad managers. Don't complain about anything else, or you will be fired, or you won't get a promotion.

Salary can be a bit higher

The managers are not the best.

Decision-making can sometimes be slow. Cross-team communication could be streamlined. Some processes feel overly complex. Limited career progression in certain roles. Internal tools occasionally lack efficiency.

Managers that don't have a lot of experience in management or in the field, there is micro management and a lot of politics. big compony with lots of people involved in every change making it hard to introduce big changes and advance with the technology outside. A lot of build in tools that could have better solutions. The compony separations doesn't apply to infrastructure teams.

1) All of the above is location dependent. Vilnius office is m_u_c_h better than a random Israel one. 2) Like everywhere - a random manager up the chain can make you life a lot worse than that of your buddy next door. 3) You will be forced to do things wix way. Some times for a good reason. Some times because there is a very large ego somewhere up above. In my experience most of business decisions are metrics based and most of "architecture" decisions are not.

Compensation not as high as market standard
