Pros

Even though we're remote, the team vibe is awesome. Everyone is super friendly and always willing to lend a hand. Having supportive coworkers is very important We have a super flexible work schedule, which made my work-life balance in a all time high.

Cons

We don't really have a career plan or anything like that. The promotion and salary raise criteria it's a bit unclear. A little more transparency in this area would be greatly appreciated. The workload can be quite demanding, and it feels like the compensation isn't quite keeping up with the effort. A fair wage for the job would make all the difference. The Deel Speed at times can be a bit chaotic. Decisions seem rushed, and we could benefit from a more thoughtful, long-term approach.

Thank you for your review and for being a part of the HR Experience team at Deel. We really appreciate the callout on the team vibe. We are currently building more resources for people development. Our head of people and leadership team is consistently looking at our compensation planning and we will provide more transparency in this area as we further develop.

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
