Cons: - Poor engineering processes.
- Some engineers, engineering managers, and product managers use Deel speed as an excuse to deliver bad results and not improve their processes.
- There's no work-life balance. They will push you to work 80 hours per week, be cautious.
- There's no such thing as unlimited PTO. You are limited to 18 days; if you want more than that, they will consider it as unpaid time-off.
