Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — and for being part of Remitly. We’re really glad to hear that you’ve found the pace energizing, the learning meaningful, and the team supportive. It’s great to know the work and perks are resonating, especially in your first year. We’re grateful for the impact you’re already making as a Senior Program Manager.
We also appreciate your perspective on systems and processes. As we continue to grow, strengthening and evolving how we work is an ongoing focus, and input like yours helps us improve. Thank you for contributing your ideas and energy to help us better serve our customers and move our mission forward.
I am a tenured employee at Remitly, and what originally drew me to stay with the company as long as I have was the commitment to culture and values.
However, as we’ve continued to grow, leadership has allowed culture and values to be undermined and are now rather a marketing mechanism for customer acquisition. We don’t value diversity, we take advantage of those in underrepresented groups and are contanstly changing policies that worsen culture rather than promote it.
Cons
Remitly needs to employ pay transparency. They allow people to change roles, sometimes to complete different job functions and continue to pay them the same way. Salaries are no longer competitive and to top it off, we are overworking tenured employees and paying them less than new employees.
Mission Driven
Career Development
Promotes employee physical and mental wellness
Empathetic approach to COVID safety and protocols
Fast Growing - lots of opportunities
Cons
Work/Life Balance
I believe Remitly wants its employees to have work/life balance but with the work load and required pace it is hard to achieve.
