Pros

In my 4+ years career in Deel, the biggest pro for me was working remotely. I generally book 2 weeks holidays: 1 week completely time off, 1 week working remotely. This reduces my "post vacation" stress and increase my engagement(working from different location/country). Also, I can arrange my working hours based on my personal agenda(ofc, if meetings allow me). I take care of my family first and start to work around 10-11am OR sometimes I start to work early to leave early. When I join deel, it was 700 people company so it was easy get involved in decisions but it still (7000+ people) keeps that spirit.

Cons

Two biggest cons: (good to know before joining) 1. Deel never sleeps. In Deel, everyone is remote and colleagues are all around the world. It means that your day end is someone's day start. It is possible to get a lot of slack messages while you are going to close your laptop. However, everyone is aware of this situation. It is normal to send a message and get a reply next day. This is a con if you cannot manage it. (you can find yourself replying slack in bed around 11pm). However, it is totally manageable. 2. Slack is office. Because Deel is remote-born. Everyone is working from home and Slack is main communication channel. Be prepared to get a lot of slack messages. You can spend your whole day by replying slack messages. This may prevent you to be productive. You should learn when you reply, when to not. Again, it is manageable but takes time to master.

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
