Airwallex Work-Life Balance & Wellbeing

Updated on October 01, 2025

Workload Sustainability

Airwallex runs fast, but aims for sustainable intensity, not nonstop grind.

  • Pace: High-growth with ebbs and flows; we plan sprints around launches and create space to recharge.
  • Ownership and impact: Real autonomy with top‑tier peers; meaningful learning, impact, and equity upside—balanced with respect for your time.
  • Expectations: Periods of push to hit milestones, but not all the time. Best for people who enjoy speed and high ownership.
  • Support: Comprehensive well‑being resources, including Modern Health for employees and dependents, plus accommodations to help you thrive.
  • Employee quote: “Autonomy to make impact.”

Mental Health Support

Airwallex supports employee mental health and wellbeing through confidential care, meaningful time off, flexible work, and a culture of listening and continuous improvement.

  • Modern Health (Employee Assistance Program): On‑demand access to six private coaching and six private therapy sessions per year, fully covered and confidential.
  • Generous time off: Paid leave that includes birthday and volunteer days to recharge and give back.
  • Flexible work support: A clear process for mobility and flexibility accommodations via the Global Mobility & Flex Work request system.
  • Comprehensive benefits: A Total Rewards framework with competitive health benefits, aligned by country, alongside short‑ and long‑term incentives.
  • Employee voice: Regular Engagement Surveys inform updates to wellbeing programs and the employee experience across regions.
  • External validation: Recognized as “Best Employer of the Year” (Asia FinTech Awards 2025), with judges citing “embedded learning” and “market‑leading health and social initiatives.”
