Pros

Deel is growing at rapid speed and this role gives you the ability to work sales end to end and really drive your territory how you want. There are limited specialist roles to lean on so you are really able to get hands on with the product and position the product/run sales yourself. The product is one of the easier products i've had the chance to sell as every team needs to pay their staff correctly. Our product team are building a solution that is going to really disrupt the market in the coming years. With the growth that is coming there is a lot of room for career development and opportunities to progress your career.

Cons

As with all scale up companies, there is a lot of change you will need to navigate. There are also a lot of process and technology changes. Things move at Deel Speed which can be frantic and difficult. Added to this you are often working with global teams in different timezones so need to be prepared to work late hours at times.

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
