WorkOS

Compensation

Public job postings show substantial US salary ranges and equity. Recent examples include engineering roles at approximately $175,000-$275,000 remote and $250,000-$300,000 hybrid in San Francisco; product, marketing, sales, design, and people roles also commonly advertise equity. Sponsorship policy is not clearly stated publicly.

Benefits

Pricing

Usage- and connection-based SaaS pricing. AuthKit is advertised as free up to 1 million monthly active users, while enterprise capabilities such as SSO and Directory Sync are generally priced per production connection with volume discounts. Public third-party and WorkOS comparison materials cite approximately $125 per connection per month at low volume, but customers should confirm current pricing directly with WorkOS.

Differentiators

• —Purpose-built for B2B SaaS and enterprise readiness rather than primarily consumer authentication
• —Hosted Admin Portal lets enterprise IT administrators configure SSO, Directory Sync, and related integrations themselves
• —Unified SSO and SCIM/Directory Sync abstraction across many identity and directory providers
• —First-class audit logs, RBAC/fine-grained authorization, HRIS integrations, and enterprise onboarding workflows
• —Developer-oriented APIs, SDKs, documentation, and support
• —Connection-based pricing can be more predictable than MAU-based pricing for SaaS products with many enterprise customers and relatively small user populations
• —Expanding into fraud prevention, encryption, feature infrastructure, and AI-agent/MCP identity
