Pros

At Deel, you aren’t just remote; you are Global-First. The level of autonomy provided allows you to exercise a true Challenger Mindset every day. Working here means solving complex global problems with a team that starts with "yes." The growth opportunities are immense, and you are constantly surrounded by world-class talent from every corner of the globe.

Cons

Operating at Deel Speed is an incredible rush, but it isn't for everyone. The pace of innovation is so fast that processes evolve weekly. To thrive here, you must be comfortable with ambiguity and have the self-discipline to manage your own energy in a high-intensity, "always-on" global environment.

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
