Tendency to hire from outside instead of promoting qualified talent from within is demotivating - this is a new problem (past year). Incredibly bandwidth constrained across the company and slow hiring, advancement compound the problem. It's an exhausting place to work because the company did not properly prepare for growth and has dozens of open roles, understaffed teams as a result. Remitly's culture has always been aggressively masculine, not unlike other tech startups - men tend to make up the majority of leadership, the loudest voice wins in meetings (men allow each other more time to speak, even if they don't realize it), meetings are about argumentation and proving yourself.
