Pros

The onboarding and off boarding is smooth since they got lots of experience in mass hiring and laying off people afterwards

Cons

Well I don’t know where to start, micromanagement, rude managers, no way to escalate

Pros

There are attempts to create a positive atmosphere through activities and scheduling, but in practice they do not significantly reduce the high workload or stress levels.

Cons

I would advise candidates to look beyond overly positive online reviews and consider employee experiences carefully. In my personal experience, the work environment in certain departments, especially sales operations, was very challenging. Management communication and leadership style in that area often felt unstructured and unprofessional, which affected team morale and performance. In particular, interactions within sales operations management — including with the Sales Operations Manager in the Dubai office — were, in my experience, difficult and not handled in a respectful or supportive manner, which contributed to a stressful working environment. There also appeared to be frequent restructuring and layoffs with limited communication or long-term stability, which created uncertainty among employees. Additionally, promotion and internal advancement often did not feel strictly performance-based, and there was a perception among staff that favoritism influenced career progression in some cases. Overall, while externally the company may present a positive image, my personal experience was that several internal departments operated under high pressure and inconsistent management practices.

Pros

I recently joined Ziwo as a Senior DevOps Engineer, and my experience so far has been outstanding. Onboarding: The onboarding process was exceptionally smooth and well-organized. From day one, I had a clear plan, all the necessary access, and fantastic support from HR and my team. They really make an effort to set new hires up for success. Team: The team is one of the best I've worked with. Everyone is highly skilled, incredibly supportive, and genuinely collaborative. There's a strong sense of camaraderie, and people are always willing to help each other out. Culture: The company culture is a huge plus. It's positive, inclusive, and forward-thinking. Management is transparent, and there's a real emphasis on work-life balance and professional growth.

Cons

The company is growing quickly, so the pace can be fast, but the supportive environment makes it manageable and exciting. Honestly, I haven't encountered any significant downsides at this point in my journey here.
