How reev replaced 4 HR tools with Deel Engage

Based in Munich, reev is a technology startup dedicated to revolutionizing electric mobility. Their commitment to sustainability and innovation is at the core of their mission to be Europe's leading charging software provider.

As the reev team grew, with employees from over 20 nationalities, it became clear that the current talent management setup was at odds with their core values of trust, responsibility, and agility.

The company’s information and talent management system were scattered across multiple tools and disjoined processes; they used four different tools to manage career progression, feedback, growth conversations, competencies, and feedback results.

For Christina Bacher, reev’s People and Organisation team lead, the manual labor of managing disconnected tools for different HR processes hindered her team from delivering strategic initiatives to support employee development.

This scattered system impacted not only HR but also the company’s team managers. Managers could not implement processes such as peer reviews or 360 feedback, as it would have been too complicated with existing tools.

Deel Engage offered a dynamic, user-friendly solution that could automate all their talent management processes: career frameworks and role descriptions, connected with competencies and company values, competency-based 360 feedback and performance reviews, and employee-driven learning and development.

With Deel Engage, reev was able to:

• Replace four disjointed tools with a single HR solution
• Streamline seven critical HR processes: competency-based feedback cycles, growth conversations, leveling assessments, career path assignments, learning assignments, and engagement surveys
• Create transparency for the entire team around performance expectations and career growth opportunities
• Launch 360 feedback cycles for the first time and gather strategic skill and performance insights
• Empower employees to take ownership of their learning and development through the training library

Moreover, by leveraging AI tools and management training resources to define competencies, reev saved approximately four months of people work.

Now, reev is working on integrating their new hire onboarding process into Deel Engage. The end goal is to have the whole employee lifecycle within one tool and enrich the employee experience from start to finish.
