The reaction comes after the CEO disclosed that the company is struggling to fill hundreds of job vacancies due to a shortage of qualified candidates in the country.
Reacting via X (formerly Twitter), the former employee, identified as @MrOlibaba, shared his personal experience, stating that his time at the company did not match its public reputation.
“I did three months with Moniepoint and resigned… I resigned and I’m not proud enough to have it on my CV,” he wrote.
“Moniepoint employee relations and welfare doesn’t equate the hype they move with.”
He went further to question the company’s stance on talent shortage, comparing its hiring situation with that of traditional financial institutions.

The ex-worker also alleged inconsistencies in the company’s recruitment process, citing an example involving a friend.
