Pros

Free coffee and snacks Office it's in city center

Cons

Remitly is a company where every manager and HR will lie to you and then will tell you that there was miscomunication and that it was you who understood things differently. Is also a company where it doesn't matter that you don't have the appropiate skills or minimum knowledge to be a manager. You already did an interview and got the position. You've won the lottery. They are firing people who spoke up and didn't settle for unfairness. So goodbye freedom! Internal promotion will be now impossible . They have approved something called secondments. Which basically is that a manager selects someone that they like to make a temporary job. Which also means that this temporary job was not public to everyone and lets the rest of the office without opportunities to appy. Hard work doesn't pay off. Core values are just values to learn to pass the interview.

Diversity of cultures including in leadership Flexible PTO Strong benefits Mission driven

Cons

Frequent pivots in business even on a monthly level. No point in annual plans. Layoffs that are frequent and unreported whether due to % "underperforming" or no reason given. Lack of work life balance due to scarce resources Leadership now concentrated in Europe which is becoming disconnected from the bigger US and Canadian businesses Does not support remote workers
