"Oyster were a key piece for expanding our team in Europe"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

The Oyster team was very supportive and provided guidance when we were about to hire new team members in Europe. They were very responsive to my emails and polite with my team and our candidates. I also like that the platform interface is user-friendly.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

My experience with Oyster has been pretty positive. Maybe something I would like to recommend to the Oyster team is to ensure that the notes saved in every new hire form are included as an attachment in the new hire's documentation. I mention this because I added some notes to the "comments" section, and when I was trying to find those notes in the new hire's profile, they were gone.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Oyster is helping us by hiring new team members in Europe since we don't have an established entity there yet. We have been able to expand our operations/business impact when having new talent in new territories.

"Working for a Spanish company from Serbia with Oyster made simple"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

The most helpful side of Oyster is that my company doesn't have an office in my home country, but Oyster makes it work like it does. Verey smooth processes, organized and on time.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

I can't really think of any at the moment. Things are working great for me.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Oyster makes it possible to hire people outside my country and still secure the same working conditions in terms of salary, benefits, pension, health insurance etc. Employees seem to appreciate this kind of relationship very much as the process makes things much more simpler for them and they are not freelancers or consultants, they are treated as full-time employees with full benefits.

Honestly, haven't found anything yet! Happy with everything that I have used / processed.

Assisting with paying an employee in another country where we do not wish to open up a business yet. We may in the future, but this is not viable at the current time.

"Amazing tool for EMS"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

Pretty great thing about Oyster is ease of finding all the documents at one place. But 1 feature which stood apart was an option to request letters needed for generic processes like applying for a credit card or for visa application. I find the tool very easy to use and simple to understand.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

That the payslips are not put in a separate section or if they were I was unable to find that. The tool is amazing it's just I feel that it can be better at organising sections.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Oyster is solving the problem to hire people in different countries. Through Oyster we were able to hire throughout the globe which helped a lot. It has helped financially and technically as well.

"Onboarding was convenient & straightforward"
What do you like best about Oyster HR?

Having the ability to work legally was very important & Oyster's local partner Interloop was also well represented. The user interface worked well which helped with organization.

What do you dislike about Oyster HR?

The monthly fee is a bit pricey. If the price was a little more competitive, it would be less of a drain on company funds.

What problems is Oyster HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allowed my company who is based in the UK to legally hire me.
