Where we are paying teammates as employees we issue pay in their local currency. You can view all salary conversions in our Salaries spreadsheet.
The Salary System allows for a simple and consistent way to handle exchange rates. We will update exchange rates every 6 months by looking at the median exchange rate over the previous 12 months. We landed on using the median over the trailing 12 months as the median will automatically exclude any outliers and help smooth out the variance in the exchange rate over time.
From time to time teammates could experience a drop in their pay due to exchange rate variations. Read in more detail about When salaries go up and down.
