While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Our matching process combines the power of our world-class software with human empathy. To help ensure engineers remain committed, Howdy offers your hires premium healthcare, dental, and vision plans; fully customized onboarding and offboarding support; regular check-ins that work around your schedule; career development that aligns with your roadmap; and access to wellness programs (Strava, Calm, GymPass) Whether you’re hiring one person or building out an entire team, Howdy gives you the flexibility to start small, grow fast, and change direction as needed. You pay a flat weekly rate only after your first hire starts. There are no upfront costs or surprise add-ons either. Howdy makes it easy to scale your team based on your goals, budget, or seasonality.

Attractive compensation, but critical failures in integrity and data privacy

Pros:
They offer a 100% remote work model under a USD contractor scheme, which is highly competitive and appealing for technical profiles in Latin America.

Cons:
Dishonest Communication: My recruitment process was halted under the false premise that I "wasn't responding to emails." After I provided evidence to the contrary, the Leadership Manager admitted in writing that I had always been in contact "in a timely manner." It is unacceptable to invent "lack of interest" narratives to cover up internal negligence.

Poor Talent Management: Despite admitting the fault of the assigned Recruiter, the Manager refused to change my point of contact to restore trust. They prioritized administrative convenience over transparency, choosing to lose a qualified candidate rather than resolve a clear operational error.

Lack of Respect for Data Privacy: Upon formally requesting the permanent deletion of my personal data from their system, the Leadership Manager evaded the request. He closed the communication without confirming the data purge, ignoring a formal legal request regarding data privacy rights.

Advice to other developers:
Don't waste your time with this agency. They seem more focused on inflating their "talent pool" to keep options on file than on filling real vacancies with professional follow-up. Their recruitment system is flawed; if any communication issues arise due to their own mistakes, they will choose to blame you or ignore your privacy requests rather than admit an internal failure.
