Pros

When I started working at Deel I was afraid of working remotely, but after I started I fell in love with the flexibility, the creativity, the division of tasks while working with people around the world. In addition, I was exposed to new cultures, in one day I meet people from the Far East to South America, a meeting with excellent people from countries that I did not get to visit and I visited all over the world except Australia. The common thinking and the desire to achieve the common goal makes people to be goal-oriented and cooperate, despite the differences in hours, language and culture - to bring Deel to change the world. Deal's business goal is unique - to solve the bureaucratic tangle of employing people in any form and anywhere - without getting up from the chair. A goal that will make our world more efficient, more diverse and more united. The willingness of people to help during a professional effort is also amazing. The willingness of people to help in non-professional crises is above and beyond - whether in the earthquake in Japan or in the one in Turkey, whether in the war in Ukraine or in the war in Israel. Everyone expressed concern, offered help and checked that work could continue and no colleague was in distress. One family spread across the world.

Cons

Work at Deel is 24/7/365 due to the location of the employees and the time differences - there are times when returning from weekends and vacations starts already the evening before in order not to stop Deel's gallop to the destination.

Pros

Supportive management, clear expectations, good money, work from home culture is dialed in

Cons

Deel Speed is real. Not for everyone, but as I said, expectations are reasonable and compensation is appropriate so I don't see it as a con per se.

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
