Pros

For me, the value “Aim for the Stars” has been a guiding principle throughout my journey at Remitly. I started as a program specialist in a brand-new line of business and eventually transitioned into a global team. That shift didn’t happen overnight, it was the result of persistence, continuous learning, and most importantly, the unwavering support of exceptional leaders. I truly wouldn’t be where I am today without their guidance. It’s the leaders who make growth like this possible, and that’s something I deeply appreciate about working here and that's a Remitly Branded Experience that separates to others.

Cons

Of course, like any growing global company, there’s always room to improve. One area I’d love to see evolve is how we connect globally. While we’re in a digital-first world, I think there’s real value in creating more opportunities for face-to-face interactions, whether that’s through team summits, cultural exchanges, or in-person collaboration across regions. Meeting and understanding our teammates from different parts of the world would only strengthen our teamwork and deepen our shared culture.

Pros

I've always wanted to work at a company that genuinely makes a positive impact—and that's exactly what Remitly does. It's the first place I've worked where there's a deep commitment to truly caring for customers, knowing that so many lives depend on our services. I feel valued and respected here. The compensation is excellent, and having stock in the company makes me even more invested in its success.

Cons

As Remitly continues to grow, there have definitely been some growing pains. One notable example has been the return-to-office (RTO) transition, which wasn’t handled as thoughtfully as many of us had hoped. Like at many companies, decisions from senior leadership can sometimes feel out of step with the day-to-day realities of employees. It's part of what comes with scaling quickly, and while it can be frustrating, I appreciate that the company is still learning and evolving.
