Pros

The people, the autonomy, the flat organization that allows for quick decisions and great visibility into how the business works. I love that I get to regularly interact with marketing, finance, engineer, etc!

Cons

Occasional lack of clarity on scope of roles and specific responsibilities primarily due to growing at an accelerated pace and trying to maintain a lean team.

Remitly Response

Thanks so much for your feedback (and sorry for the belated response on this one)!

The worst place I have ever worked at

Business Outlook

Pros

Market rate salary and great benefits.

Cons

Shockingly bad management. Huge staff turnover for such a small London office and there is a good reason for that - management.

Remitly Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I'm glad you mention you have been happy with our compensation and benefits, I am really saddened to read about your overall experience. We take your comment about the high turnover and management style very seriously. We have lost one employee since March 2020 when COVID started. Every employee matters and we were sorry to lose this person. We deeply care about our teams and we will work even harder to continue to improve our employee environment and make sure we treat all our employees fairly. If you'd ever be open to meeting with me so I can learn more, I would appreciate the opportunity to hear your perspective. This will help us improve as a business and help us fulfill our mission, which we care about deeply.
