Pros
+ Fully remote distributed workforce creating a true level playing field for team members in all locations (no HQ making the decisions) + Very diverse workforce with team members in over 100 countries + Team members can work from anywhere with very flexible work schedules + A product which creates significant value for both employers (making global workforce management feasible and expanding talent pool) and employees (providing many remote employees an opportunity to work for the best global brands) + High rate of internal promotions and personal development opportunities + Historical growth velocity with a very fast paced and brave culture - making fast decisions, not being afraid to iterate and change things when needed + A relatively flat org structure with a strong hands-on culture across all levels. Executive team working frequently with individual contributors with a very informal approach + A large scale global operation providing team members exposure to clients and markets in over 150 countries - a great learning opportunity
Cons
- Some new hires can find it hard to perform in a fully remote and distributed environment. A lot of people are accustomed to work remotely post COVID, however Deel is a remote company by design and DNA. This requires adapting to an a-sync communication style, collaborating across timezones, documenting knowledge and being open to different cultures. Not a trivial transition for everyone - The pace of work is high and can be intense, a good level of self-management and planning is required to leverage the high degree of flexibility the company provides to create your own work-life balance - Building strong personal relationships with colleagues is tougher in a fully remote setup which means you need to put in the extra effort
