Meet the Interns

Hear from some of our former interns as they share their insights on what surprised them most about their summer internship experience at WEX.

Marcus

What struck me most about working at WEX was the level of visibility and connectivity I was afforded as an intern. Within my first few weeks, I was working on projects that executives would see and receiving invitations to lunches and coffee from senior leadership.

People balance individual ownership and teamwork with ease. I was embedded in the work culture and given sufficient space to nurture creativity along with enormous cushion to fall back on!

HR Compensation Intern

Mare

Coming into WEX as a rising sophomore I thought I was only going to be shadowing my manager. They gave me real work from day one, and although it was a lot of responsibility, I enjoyed knowing that I was doing work that mattered.
