Trusted by teams and partners
The best jobs should be open to everyone
Back in 2019, Oyster began with a question: How can we make global employment easier for companies and talented workers?
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.
Hire based on talent, not location

Our 
core values
Build and give trust
We choose to forge trust through every decision and interaction, knowing that our colleagues, customers, TMs, and partners depend on us to be reliable, transparent, and true to our word.
We listen deeply, follow through on commitments, and create psychological safety so hard conversations can happen openly.
Make It Happen
We don’t wait for perfect clarity or permission to make things better; instead, we take ownership, iterate, see it through, and deliver results.
Learning from honest mistakes helps us be braver, move faster, and grow stronger - it gives us the courage to tackle complex problems. Progress is our default setting.
Drive Change
The world doesn't stand still and neither do we. We see change as an opportunity for both Oyster and ourselves to evolve.
We embrace change, lean into new ideas, adapt with optimism, and treat every shift as a chance to grow personally and professionally - while supporting our team's wellbeing along the way.
United Team
We are all united behind the mission. We actively break down silos, communicate in public, and hold each other accountable.
We seek out diverse perspectives and bring unheard voices into conversations, because we care about each individual. Cross-functional collaboration delivers the best results.
