      Pros

      Remitly has a full set of cultural values that drive the decisions, actions and behavior of everyone. The leadership walks the walk, exemplifying the best traits that make Remitly employees great. The culture of caring for customers, taking care of our people, being authentic, supportive and joyful people is priceless. I feel like I can do my best work at Remitly, and with the growth we are experiencing there is a lot of great work to be done.

      Cons

      Remitly is a financial institution, subject to compliance and audits in multiple jurisdictions. Our moves are more conservative than startups outside of the FinTech industry.

      Pros

      AI Native from first principles. Colleagues are strong and collaborative; this is the most consistent positive across teams. The mission is concrete: moving cross-border money for people supporting families. It informs prioritization and trade-offs. Scope and responsibility are available early to people who take them. Compensation and benefits are great. The company has a defined strategic direction under new CEO Sebastian Gunningham and is executing against it. Exciting time to be here.

      Cons

      Big org changes as the company reinvent, not for everyone.

      Pros

      The company started off to be great when I joined a few years back. Lots of hands on opportunities, some great people to work with. Benefits are good, people are valued and contributions are seen.

      Cons

      The company really started to go downhills in 2024 when there are constant leadership changes, mission changes, priorities changes and team orgs. Business Managers are starting to act like the "decision-maker" over pretty much all product and marketing decisions. We start to question if the direction we are focusing on is even right. Is it customer-centric still or is it more business-oriented. work life balance is bad stress is high people are no longer valued, heard or seen you know a company is going in a negative direction when you start to see tenured employees to leave, smart people to leave as well.
