Pros

The people are quite friendly and hard-working and there is a genuine community of people with good intentions. There can also be quick progression.

Kontras

You're very likely to be overworked and underpaid for the work you do. Work-life balance is not a priority and unless your social life is based within Wiser, it will likely take a big hit. Complaints are often swept under the rug or vaguely addressed by the idea that people who may have these sort complaints are not Wiser or "purple" or 'high-performance' enough. The description of what makes a person Wiser/purple is problematically vague and leaves room for manipulation or pressure to overwork to fit the bill. There is also a preference to hire people who have limited working experience outside of Wiser so they are more easily moulded to the ideal Wiser employee. That is why when people arrive with more experience they often do not enjoy it or leave rather quickly. The quick progression (more of responsibilities than salary) coupled with the limited experience and murky training puts people in leadership positions prematurely.

Pros

Amazing office, great snacks and general vibes. Lots of young people. You will learn a lot, quality of work is high and everyone works hard.

Kontras

Very competitive spirit, feels like a jungle. New hires either get with the program or you won't feel very good working here. Toxic culture...

Pros

Their vision of changing the way people think about work has really landed for me. Before joining Wiser, I honestly saw work as something you just had to push through - a grind, something separate from real life. Now I see it as a place where you can grow, feel supported, and actually enjoy the day-to-day. It took me out of the survival mode I think a lot of people fall into living in a busy city like London. That shift has been huge for me. I worked in the ops team managing the podcast studio, and the atmosphere was consistently uplifting. The people are bright, funny, supportive, and bring a naturally good energy into the office. It’s one of the first places I’ve worked where the culture isn’t just a buzzword and it genuinely shows up in how people treat each other. The office had a flexible dog policy system, which made a massive difference for me. I could bring my pup into the office when I needed to, and everyone genuinely loved having dogs around. It added to the warm, human feel of the place and made coming in even more enjoyable. On a personal level, I felt really supported. When I started thinking about taking a different direction in my life, the founder was there for me - encouraging me, helping me think things through, and supporting me while I figured out my next step. That kind of openness and care is rare, and it meant a lot.

Kontras

I’m pretty surprised to read some of the negative reviews. Work will never be perfect anywhere, but I genuinely haven’t had one experience that felt off or jarring - which is a big contrast to previous roles I’ve had.
