We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. I'm glad to hear that you found value in the opportunities to grow at Remitly.

Pros

the snacks are good, office is nice

Cons

can't make up their mind on a roadmap, constantly reshuffling, focused on useless product updates, keep moving over senior leaders from org to org to mask their failure instead of hiring fresh new outsiders Comp on paper sounds great however they will find ways to get rid of you before equity vests so don't be fooled

Pros

- Great CEO - Good C-suite level management - Good work-life balance

Cons

- Pay is below market value - The company does not have any programs or strategy to develop young talent so they systematically push you out by not providing opportunities for growth - Bias in their promotion criteria- the people that decide whether you deserve a promotion have no interface with your work so it's about how well you know someone who has promotion power or how much noise you can attract to your work and not necessarily the quality of it.
