Payara Services Reviews

Thank you for this feedback: It's rewarding to hear that you feel Payara's a safe, helpful and positive space!

Hello, and thank you for your feedback. We're glad that you've found the Payara Team great to work with -- we certainly agree! However, we are sorry to see that Cons list -- • As for long-term commitment, we are proud of Payara's low turnover rate, with many Payarans choosing to stay with the company since Payara was founded in 2016 (advancement opportunities, company culture, personal/professional growth are only 3 of many reasons typically cited in our consistent anonymous and signed feedback channels, to validate Payara as a long-term employer of choice). • As for competitive pay, Payara uses a researched, standard benchmark system, which investigates local and global salary standards for each role to ensure staff salaries are both locally and globally competitive. We also review each team-member's rate proactively at least once each year. • I'm sorry that you feel management is disconnected: we hope that each Payaran makes use of our multiple channels for both top-down and bottom-up communication with management, including weekly cross-team meetings, weekly memos, consistent anonymous surveys (with comments/results fed directly to management), an always-live suggestion channel (which are also communicated directly to management), monthly 1:1s, bi-annual appraisals, etc. Management and Leadership also communicate via weekly memos, monthly Newsletters, quarterly events, an annual retreat, and of course via ad hoc communications on our multiple channels. • As for the Con regarding rules, based on feedback management has proactively minimised rules where possible, but unfortunately, for operations the business must maintain some procedures and policies. We do, however, invite Payarans to talk to their Team Leaders and/or the People Team if they identify any rules that they feel are superfluous: we are always happy either to better communicate their purpose or to review them. Thanks again for your feedback. We are more than happy to chat about any concerns offline: I, the People Team, and your Team Leader are ready to talk at any time. Kind regards, M

Thanks very much for this positive feedback. We're glad that you feel you have the opportunity to grow personally and professionally with Payara: that's so important to us. Payara also prioritises culture and communications, so it's great to see your positive feedback of those elements too! We agree that when you have a great team like Payara's, missing out on office life together, thanks to public health restrictions, is disappointing, but it's also great to interact with all Payarans around the globe during our fun virtual events. See you there!
