Oyster

Building an all-star team shouldn’t be limited by borders. We’re on a mission to make it easier than ever for growing companies to hire, pay, and take care of brilliant employees—wherever they are in the world. 
‍
Today, our fully-distributed team is based in 60+ countries and this number is expanding every week. We embrace the benefits and opportunities that come with global employment—and we’re working together to provide them to you too.

Our mission is to create a more equal world by making it possible for companies everywhere to hire people anywhere. We believe it should be easy for any company to hire any person, no matter where they are located in the world.

At Oyster, being globally distributed isn’t a challenge to overcome—it’s one of our biggest strengths. As champions of asynchronous communication, we design how we work as thoughtfully as we design our product.

We are intentional. Being purposeful about the ways we communicate and work together creates a stronger virtual workplace culture. We default to asynchronous work. This means less Zoom fatigue and more independence, flexibility, and trust. Done well, it's better for all of us.

We are radically transparent. Transparency helps us grow. We value honest feedback, recognize hard work, and get any issues on the table as fast as possible.

We value clarity. We strive to be exceptionally clear and encourage overcommunication.
