What's It Like to Work at Afterpay?

Afterpay Employee Reviews

Before Afterpay, my job made me feel like a cog in the machine. I never really got to see the impacts of my contributions. But at Afterpay, every feat counts towards bettering our company, our business, and the experience of our customers.

My favorite part about working here is the opportunity to learn and grow from intelligent and personable team members. I chose Afterpay because of the great opportunity to work for the pioneer of the buy now pay later industry.

Our People team created a recognition survey so as a manager, I can see how each individual on my team prefers to receive recognition for a job well done. This is snacks for some, time off for others. At a fast-growing, hyper-dynamic organization like Afterpay, our teams are working at speed. Sharing even little forms of rewards goes a long way.

Success here is to have ownership of your projects. This means responsibility, being proactive in moving projects forward, collaborating across teams, and knowing projects inside out, from implementation details to business impact. It's being curious, creative, motivated, and tenacious. It’s awesome to see your work impact customer experience.

The thing I love most about my job is that there is no typical day. It's usually a mix of cross-functional meetings, customer interviews, making presentations, reviewing product requirements, analyzing and interpreting data, interviewing candidates for roles at Afterpay, and planning what will be on our Product roadmap in the coming months.

I believe in an open-door mindset, which is one should be always available for being reached out. With full transparency of my schedule, I'm clear that my calendar is always up-to-date so they should feel free to book any time slot. I am also active on our communication channels. When not available, I always give an estimation when I'll reach back.
