Pros

PEOPLE: Deel has employees in almost 100 countries from all walks of life. There is no better company to learn from people of every culture, background, and experience on a global, yet intimate level. In my opinion, almost every person at Deel has three defining characteristics: smart, humble, and hardworking. The opportunity to collaborate, work incredibly fast, and build amazing things is found with the people at Deel. LEADERSHIP: Deel has incredibly ambitious and visionary leaders. I joined Deel when the product was contractor payments, sprinkled with some EOR. 2 years later, Deel also provides Global Payroll, US Payroll, HRIS, Mobility, and Incorporation! The founders (and other leaders) just have the "it" factor. Deel is a generational company with the right people at the helm. PRODUCT: Deel's product is best in market because we eat our own dog food. Few companies have built a startup of Deel's scale and speed in a global remote environment. Deel has been in the fortunate (or unfortunate if you ask people team haha) position of navigating HR on an extremely global level, allowing us to intimately know the challenges our customers face. CAREER: Deel provided me with endless opportunities for personal growth and career development. A fast-growing company in a dynamic environment, built on extreme trust and ownership seems to be the perfect storm for career growth. I have seen 20+ of my friends at Deel promoted to Manager and Director levels. People are rewarded and recognized! There are few companies like Deel that provide similar growth opportunities.

Cons

NOT LIFESTYLE: Could be considered a con based on personal priorities, but Deel is not a lifestyle company. It's fair to assume that a "remote tech startup" would provide flashy benefits and emphasize work-life balance — but that is not Deel. There are great tech companies that provide that sort of environment, but everything comes with a cost. They may potentially lack career growth, fulfillment at work, and learning. Those three you will most definitely find at Deel instead. EXTREMELY REMOTE: Another con to some may be working in a very remote environment. Remote work is challenging – doing it globally at every timezone is even more. It takes patience, flexibility, and sometimes early/late calls. One who prioritizes workplace camaraderie may be disappointed.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for being a leader on the Partnerships team at Deel. We are happy to see that you are happy with the people, company mission / product, and leadership at Deel - and that the pros outweigh the cons for the most part. You make some fair points here , especially on our fully remote work environment. It can be challenging to work at a fully remote company, it does take resilience and adaptability. We are working on opportunities for team members to gather in person to build relationships and camaraderie.

Pros

The company is filled with incredibly smart and skilled people across all functions and levels. The number of high performers is something I've never seen before. Autonomy is really nice, there's a lot of trust in people getting their stuff done. There is a lot of confidence in our co-founders and leadership team - they are extremely competent, strategic with capital, and know how to energize the masses. Doesn't mean things are "a walk in the park", goals are aggressive everywhere in the organization and everyone is held accountable. But they are achievable and there is some great collaboration. Overall it still feels like a startup because of the pace, which makes things exciting.

Cons

With any startup, there are growing pains. We're no different. The larger the organization has gotten the more complex it has become to navigate.
