I work remotely for valley and LA startups. As a freelancer (sometimes with shares) in my case, but still, it is doable. I guess big corps is different, but those do not interest me (meant as; I cannot say anything about those).
- est31 7y agoFrom the links on your profile it seems you live in NL. You can still freelance for SV/LA startups? Interesting, as when I searched for remote positions in those companies, almost all of them didn't seem to allow non-US remote work. How do you cope with the time difference? Is the pay closer to SV/LA levels or closer to NL levels?
- tluyben2 7y agoThe time difference works out as we talk 1 hour west coast morning and that’s it. Usually that is the end of my day, so they can test and report issues for me to fix when their day is done. Pay: I do not know: payment in NL is quite high for freelancers in my experience so not sure about that question. It is more the taxes that get you I guess vs the west coast.

- Mvandenbergh 7y agoAs a manager, I really like having a few people in the US and a few in Asia. (Our core team is in London). That lets us get certain tasks done much more quickly (in terms of elapsed time between start and finish).
