As a private company, Superhuman (formerly known as Grammarly) faced a common challenge: equity is easy to misunderstand, and employees can be cynical about compensation they can't fully see. Leah Springer, Global Head of Compensation, shares how rolling out Pave's Total Rewards portal let employees see their full compensation package—salary, equity, and benefits—together for the first time.
Key Wins
- Brought together data previously siloed across Workday (comp) and Shareworks (equity) into one place employees could actually see
- Let employees see the potential value of their equity for the first time, changing how the company communicates about total rewards
- Built real employee education around private company equity, including the nuances between RSUs and options
- Used Pave's Visual Offer Letter to tell a clearer compensation story to candidates — a differentiator in recruiting at a private company
"For the first time, [employees] were able to see the potential value of their equity—it totally changed the way we communicated to employees about their total rewards."
— Leah Springer, Global Head of Compensation, Superhuman
