Thank you for sharing your experience. We're very glad to hear you had positive relationships with the team in our Cape Town office. We fully agree that their talent is invaluable to the company. We’re sorry to hear that you felt there was a lack of strategic direction and that the Cape Town team was not fully recognized or utilized. That is not the experience we want anyone to have, and we are committed to improving communication, collaboration, and inclusion across all our offices. Regarding your concerns about compensation, we understand this is an important and sensitive issue. Our compensation models are based on several factors, including local cost-of-living standards and market benchmarks. We continuously review our models to ensure they are fair, competitive, and truly reflect the value the team brings to the company in every location. We truly appreciate your feedback as it helps guide ongoing improvements. We wish you all the best.

Pros

People at Cape Town office are amazing.

Cons

US management is terrible. Feels like they don’t know what they want or how to achieve this. Company disregards the Cape Town office completely when the people working there are highly talented.
