About Oyster HR, Inc
Oyster is a global employment platform that helps companies hire, pay, manage, and take care of distributed teams across borders.

The platform also supports global compensation programs through localized benefits, salary benchmarking insights, and visa sponsorship support for relocation and immigration workflows. Oyster emphasizes compliance-first operations and trust, highlighting third-party verification and audits (including SOC 2 Type II availability) and alignment with GDPR and the EU-US Data Protection Framework principles.
