Remitly reviews

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback. I'm glad that you believe in our vision and mission and that you have a positive outlook of the company. I also really appreciate the feedback to management. As a rapidly growing company, it is hard to balance hiring externally vs. building capacity internally but we want to support the development of internal candidates as much as possible so we recently hired a senior leader to help with development. I'm sorry that you experienced a "Diversity/Equity/Fraternity Effect" at Remitly. As you said, it's an industry-wide issue but we're investing very intentionally in D&I. We have a D&I guild with over 100 members in it and we recently opened a role to hire a senior full time D&I leader to support this work. If you would ever be open to meeting with me so I could learn more about your experience at Remitly, I'd welcome the opportunity. I care about you and the rest of the Remitly team so I'm sorry to hear about your experience and that you left the company.

Thank you for your direct feedback. Given that you're an existing team member, I'm saddened by the fact that we've not discussed this together. I'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you about your experience in my capacity as head of our People function. As a senior female leader, your comments below do not resonate with my experience, but that's obviously just my experience and I'd really like to hear yours. I assure you that we DEEPLY care about immigrants, that in our high-growth environment there are many ways to learn and grow, and that we want this to be a place where everyone's voice matters. I'm hosting employee roundtables and am available anytime via 1:1 / email if you would be willing to talk more. I promise to listen openly and work hard to continue improving. I also want to briefly respond to your comment on D&I. This is the first time we've hired a full-time dedicated D&I Director and making that investment is quite unique for a company our size. We are excited for this senior level person to partner with our passionate D&I Guild in building programs and helping drive ongoing systemic change. We want to embed equality even more deeply into our DNA now, so we can scale globally across many cultures as we continue to grow.
