Gender diversity report

Message from our CEO & Co-founder

We all think we aren’t biased. But we are. Our unconscious mind is.

We are all products of our environments, and we must realize that as individuals we grew up in very different environments. This is why we must realize that we are biased, even if we’re not aware of it. Our childhood background, the very first books that we read when we were young, the cultures we were exposed to, our education, environment, where we live, who our neighbors are, what we study and where we work. All of these make up who we are and how we make decisions. And they create inherent unconscious biases, whether we like it or not.

The first step is to acknowledge these unconscious biases and become aware of them. Then, we must understand the responsibility for change is ours. We have to hold ourselves accountable. 

Diversity, Equality, Inclusion, and Belonging make us more innovative, more collaborative, and therefore more successful as a society and as a company. That’s why we are committed to not only acknowledging these biases, but creating an environment that fosters inclusive collaboration and embraces differences in opinions, cultures, beliefs, background, color, opinions at every step of the way.

Our commitment to diversity, inclusion and EI&B goes hand in hand with our commitment to being independent and unbiased as a company. We are constantly challenging ourselves to do better, and holding ourselves accountable at every step of the way.


We’re proud of what we’ve done here at AppsFlyer and AppsFlyer Cares in regard to diversity and equality, and are also proud to say we’re always striving to do better as a company, and as a society. We can and we will.

CEO & Co-founder

AppsFlyer’s commitment
AppsFlyer’s commitment

We are committed to fostering, cultivating, and preserving a culture of diversity, equity, equality, and inclusion. 

As AppsFlyer continues to grow, we remain committed to a diverse and inclusive culture and workforce. Ensuring equal opportunities for everyone is based on the understanding that our mission is best served by elevating voices from different backgrounds and perspectives, and by promoting a culture that fosters diversity and inclusion in all its dimensions, while providing space for everyone to feel seen, heard, and valued. 

As a people-centric organization committed to equal opportunity, we actively foster a welcoming environment and culture for all of our people, and strive to recruit, develop, and invest in talented people that represent diverse cultures, perspectives, skills, and experiences. 

We are constantly working to create equal employment opportunities for all of our people and to prohibit discrimination and harassment with regard to race, gender identity or expression, age, color, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, language, national origin, physical and mental ability, race, religion, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, or other personal status protected by law.  

We have seen firsthand that diversity and inclusion drive innovation. These ideas do not simply support our core business objectives, they have a long-lasting positive impact on people, communities, and society as a whole. Our commitment to this vision is critical to maintaining a competitive edge and sustainable growth, and to being the kind of company we want to be.

DEI&B journey
DEI&B journey

Diversity is our strength. We are proud of our company’s diversity, which reflects a human mosaic of cultures, genders, generations, perspectives, and talents. Our drive to promote inclusivity and equality is based on the understanding that we are best able to achieve our mission by creating a culture that fosters diversity and inclusion in all its dimensions while  elevating voices from different backgrounds and perspectives. 

As an equal opportunity, people-obsessed company, we seek to recruit, develop and invest in the most talented people while embracing diverse cultures, perspectives, skills, and experiences within our workforce and beyond. For us, this isn’t simply a business issue, it’s a human one, and we see it as part of our responsibility.

As we share our first Gender Report, we are very excited and happy to  showcase the work that has been done, as well as the path we are taking to continue to better ourselves.  This is our commitment to our responsibility for both our company and the broader communities we operate in. Our work to empower women goes beyond our office walls as we work to create a future with greater employment opportunities for women in under-represented communities.  

We take our responsibility seriously and are always looking for ways to be better, more transparent, and more intentional in the steps we take. We strive to create a culture with greater representation, equity, equality, diversity and belonging. We understand that we can only reach those goals when our systems are fair and unbiased, when we ensure equal access and opportunities that meet individual needs and encourage growth, and when we give back to our communities. 

We know our work is far from done. Gender diversity is one of our core pillars, a central value and a goal we will continue to work toward. We are humbled by the opportunity to learn from our people and help our people grow along the way.

Compensation (will be referred to as comp from this point on) strategy:

Being people obsessed is a key part of our culture. It’s our North Star keeping us focused on always adding value to our work.

That’s why we’ve revamped our compensation process and strategy to ensure we are always aligned with the market, competitive, and fair. 

After all, being data driven is just as important for our people as it is for our products:

  • Compensation decisions (for new or existing team members) are based on internal and external market benchmark surveys per role and level. Benchmarks are being updated at least twice a year (Zviran, Compete in Israel and Mercer in RoW)
  • Annual data driven compensation review to all eligible team members, to ensure competitiveness, fairness and recognition. In addition, we conduct a semi-annual review to ensure we can proactively address cases of new people and promotions. 
  • As part of our comp reviews we’re proactively conducting gender analysis and audit and review outstanding cases in our comp committee. We are committed to minimize gender pay gaps and ensure women in all jobs, levels and statuses 

Fair and competitive pay

99% average compensation ratio

Compensation ratio = 100% means we are paying fairly and competitively to the market, based on the unique Combination of role, seniority level, and location.

Communities 

Our communities are based on three core pillars: people, community & well being, and ecosystem.

Inclusive culture: Communities

#Proud AF

Cares year round. This is a global, company wide community. It is lead by a leadership group that represents all of AppsFlyer regions, cultures, religions, gender and sexual identities. The community works year round to make sure we create an open, safe, loving, equal work environment with representation and a voice. 

Inclusive culture: #Proud AF

#Sawa AF

Together we strive to build a shared society. Sawa in Arabic means together, and together with our Arab speaking community we intend to empower and change the tech sphere in Israel. Through mentoring, networking, and providing accessibility for young women and men to the tech industry.

Inclusive culture: #Sawa AF

#Born AF

In locations where we have a large number of newborns, we run parental clubs to support new parents and help promote wellbeing.

It is a place for new parents to mingle and keep connected with the AppsFlyer community. The program for each meet-up of Born AF changes per country. Every community meeting includes brunch, infant development support sessions, lectures, and workouts. The community is open to all parents on parental leave. 

Inclusive culture: #Born AF

Parental leave

At AppsFlyer we are all one big community, and give a special place to our peoples’ families.

Inclusive culture: Parental leave

In order to promote gender equality and support new parents, we launched our Parental Leave Program that provides all genders, including our LGBTQ+ families, with 6 weeks of paid parental leave (beyond the legal rights guaranteed by their country). In case of premature birth (before week 37), or twins, we offer an additional 2 paid weeks. This paid leave can be divided into 2 vacation periods up until the baby’s first birthday.

Inclusive culture: Parental leave for LGBTQ+ families

During the legal maternity leave, and paid parental leave, all social rights and benefits are covered by the company. 

When parents return from parental leave the main caregiver can work at 80% capacity while receiving a full salary until the  baby’s first birthday (full-time positions only).

In order to promote age diversity, we have also added 1 week of paid leave to new grandparents.
