Pros

1. You will learn how SaaS startup world works. 2. There are lots of opportunities to grow. 3. You can be a part of an exponential story and join a rocket ship that is officially the fastest growing startup in history.

Cons

1. It is not a calm place to work - the pressure is constant, a lot of responsibility as well. 2. Because of the Deel Speed management often doesn't know where to go, you have to help them getting into the right direction. 3. An exponential growth, unfortunately doesn't mean your compensation will grow the same way.

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
