Pros

crazy growth, fastest-growing tech company in history last year, product that sells! Pay is very competitive. Pre IPO Equity. 100% remote work - work from anywhere. Supportive culture. Career opportunities. Amazing place to work. Hop on this rocket ship with us!

Cons

High-performing team which is expected but means you need to work hard day in day out - no days off. "unlimited vacation" is a perk but also sort of not if you're not hitting targets.

More to come on how we at Deel are addressing burnout, setting boundaries, proactively leveraging our Flexible PTO, and the encouragement of booking micro-breaks.

Pros

- Fully remote - Mostly nice and talented people, you can learn a bunch and the atmosphere is good in the beginning - Once you realize you're not ever getting a raise you can get by doing bare minimum - You can write the ceo on slack and he will respond, which is actually insane considering its such a huge company

Cons

- Everyone is underpaid, even the senior directors. They present employee equity as extra compensation, but make it very difficult to sell shares at secondaries. - Raise/promotion policies are set up in a way where most ppl will never get it. I've seen superstar employees get 2% annual raise. The rest got 1%. - Pay is localized, so you can do the same exact job but get pay half of the compensation if you're not based in the US. - It's either employee contract for less money, and you have some employee rights given to you by your country, or more money but you're getting misclassified on a b2b contract and using vaction days when you get sick. The actual work requirements and responsibilities are the same in both cases. - If you're not drinking the koolaid you better fall in line and keep any opinions challenging the status quo to yourself - Manager can get pretty manipulative, they'll say anything to appease you, but will not act in your interest unless it aligns with their internal politics play
