About Oyster HR
Recent feed is a historical archive reindex; most actual-current ships sit deeper in the queue.
The window is dominated by Oyster's blog archive being reindexed on April 26 — six of the surfaced entries describe product updates from 2023, 2024, and mid-2025. They collectively chart Oyster's footprint across global employment plumbing: integrations (ADP Workforce Now, Hibob, Workday, PayFit, plus an Oyster API), compensation tooling (Salary Analyzer, Benefit Marketplace, salary insights), direct-employment expansion (Mexico via own entity), and small UX polish. The genuinely recent ships in the broader queue — Q1 2026 product updates and People Partner Services from February 2026 — are buried below this archive surfacing.
