Review from IT Dept · Posted 10 days ago

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Be employee-centric again. Everyone is afraid of getting fired. Being overworked, understaffed, underbudgeted, and undersupported has become the new norm. There are three people on medical leave at my org; that is not normal and has become he only way to avoid burnout. Ridiculous

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 9 days ago

The grow opportunities, I feel there is already a list of people that can apply and can grow here. already approved by the managers.

Review from Customer Success Dept

have the managers being an empathetic partner, managing people is not just about numbers, keep in mind that once you put associated under a high volume of stress you are affecting the emotional health.

Review from Operations Dept

Stop acting like a fachade and just tring to impress the people in power

Review from Customer Success Dept

Change the mindset on every aspect of the process Make more dynamic procedures in order to motivate us Give more options to the associates to distract while working, lately Remitly have been closing and looking more like a call center industry company with us

Review from Customer Success Dept

Expectations and priorities from leadership are not clear and feels like leadership is getting increasingly paranoid post-IPO, so employees are becoming increasingly anxious that they'll be punished if an idea succeed. Lots of culture leaders leaving in the past 12 months

Review from Operations Dept

Value diversity, stop rewarding those making it hard for others to work, and know your customers

more recognition programs, little benefits
