Our take

Barley’s smart compensation platform allows companies to visualize their pay structure on a company scale to ensure that staff are fairly compensated. While every business has some form of compensation tracking system, Barley’s offers advantages – namely the ability to visualize pay bands at scale, and gauge employee compensation expectations.

Given the well documented skills shortage and “Great Resignation” of the last few years, there’s more pressure than ever on companies to give employees enough reasons to stay. Factor into that the long overdue move for gender, racial and ability-based pay equity, and a solution like Barley’s could prove very effective.

It’s early days for the 2021 launched startup, but with the successful entrepreneurial backgrounds of co-founders Jafar Owainati and William Mainguy, as well as the financial backing of Golden Ventures and leaders at Shopify and DMZ, the startup looks set for a period of rapid growth.

Company values

  • Focus on the Customer: We obsess over understanding our customers' challenges, knowing that the best path to a solution is listening to and collaborating with them.
  • Have a Bias for Action: Speed matters. We're not afraid to take action quickly, especially when decisions are reversible. We think and talk in days, not weeks.
  • Pursue Continuous Improvement: We seek and provide feedback (even when it can be tough). We invest in personal development, and we strive to teach and mentor others.
  • Keep Things Simple: We respect the importance of details, but keep them limited, so that we can deliver simple, innovative, and powerful solutions with velocity.
  • Be Relentlessly Curious: We believe that asking the right questions helps us get to the best answers. It all starts with understanding "the why" behind a problem.
