“Before Oyster, we tried a few other EORs, including Deel and Omnipresent, but we didn’t have a great experience. With previous EOR solutions, we didn’t have clear guidance when hiring in new territories that were unfamiliar to us. We were left in the unknown. We weren’t guided through the process confidently, which affected the onboarding experience negatively for the team members joining us.”

"What makes Oyster an easy choice as a partner is that they’re always open to understanding your compensation and benefits package—or what you’d like it to be for everybody. They’ll advise you not only on the countries where that would be possible, but actually break it down for you and give you that list. It helped ensure a unified experience of what people get. So that's been awesome and it’s taken away a big challenge."

"Thanks to Oyster we have people selling our products around the world. As a result, our company grew 20-25% percent from 2022 to 2023. So that’s been amazing."

"Oyster helped us bridge the gap between wanting global talent, but not having entities in all the locations to hire them.
