Pros

- The salary is better than the average for the position - 100% remote from any place in the world - Salary in USD

Cons

- You're an independent contractor, so they can get rid of you with no explanation at any moment. - They keep pushing unrealistic metrics on customer support agents, giving them more workload compared to similar departments. - They don't listen to agent's feedback, they ask for it, but only say "thank you for the opinion!" without actually changing or doing anything - The product is very complex, and even if you understand it on a 98%, they will never congratulate you for anything, but instead they will harass you for that 2% that you don't know. - When you receive 1 DSAT, you need to get 15 CSATs in order to "balance" the 1 negative review. Which doesn't make sense, since the survey is optional, and most of the users qualify Deel's product instead of the agent's service. They know, but they don't care about that. - Growth opportunities are an illusion. They will try their hardest to keep you away from a raise. - It's ALWAYS the agent's fault (even when it's actually not) - With the "Deel Speed" thing, they demand agents to have a 1 hour SLA for tickets, however, most of the times, you will have +6 tickets (plus tickets that they manually assign you) at the same time, plus live calls that can last over an hour. Once again: unrealistic, they know and don't care. - Team leaders are awful, an accident can happen to you and they'll still ask if you'll be going to work that day. - It's overwhelming 25/8, and it's impossible to work there for more than a year. Do not join. Take care of your mental health instead, it's better than earning the $1200 USD per month.

Pros

- Fully remote - Mostly nice and talented people, you can learn a bunch and the atmosphere is good in the beginning - Once you realize you're not ever getting a raise you can get by doing bare minimum - You can write the ceo on slack and he will respond, which is actually insane considering its such a huge company

Cons

- Everyone is underpaid, even the senior directors. They present employee equity as extra compensation, but make it very difficult to sell shares at secondaries. - Raise/promotion policies are set up in a way where most ppl will never get it. I've seen superstar employees get 2% annual raise. The rest got 1%. - Pay is localized, so you can do the same exact job but get pay half of the compensation if you're not based in the US. - It's either employee contract for less money, and you have some employee rights given to you by your country, or more money but you're getting misclassified on a b2b contract and using vaction days when you get sick. The actual work requirements and responsibilities are the same in both cases. - If you're not drinking the koolaid you better fall in line and keep any opinions challenging the status quo to yourself - Manager can get pretty manipulative, they'll say anything to appease you, but will not act in your interest unless it aligns with their internal politics play
