What's the Work-Life Balance Like at Flywire?

Flywire encourages employees to prioritize their wellbeing by offering initiatives that create space to disconnect from work and focus on life outside of it. Employees say programs like Digital Disconnect Day help them recharge, strengthen family relationships and pursue new experiences that support long-term wellbeing.

“The Digital Disconnect Day was one of many great initiatives implemented by Flywire and has been instrumental to me and to my family to detox and recharge and navigate through tough times. We have used the opportunity to explore new activities, usually in the countryside of Brazil.

As a result of last year's disconnect day my kids embraced horse riding as a sport and this has brought many benefits to them in discipline, commitment and self-confidence.

I am very thankful for this opportunity and the incentive of the company to look for things that can make you feel alive, live new experiences and discover new interests without being behind a device.”

Flywire promotes employee wellbeing by encouraging people to unplug from technology and dedicate time to themselves and their loved ones. Employees say initiatives like Digital Disconnect Day help them recharge, strengthen personal relationships and return to work feeling refreshed.

“During my Digital Disconnect day off that I took earlier this year in April, not only me but even my daughter and wife disconnected completely from all their gadgets and gizmos so we could all spend the quality time together outdoors. We visited a water park and enjoyed roller coaster rides, it was fun and totally rejuvenating. Digital Disconnect days off is an excellent initiative by Flywire, it’s essential because detoxing from digital devices is a way to focus on real-life social interactions without distractions.”
