It's bizarre considering that the company benefits as well when you move to low cost of living areas. Those tend to be low tax states so the state tax burden associated with employing you that the company has to pay goes down. Its absurd that they demand additional savings on top of that.
- ac29 5y agoThe portion of payroll taxes paid by the employer are entirely Federal aren't they? The difference in income taxes is paid (or saved) by the employee.
- OminousWeapons 5y agoThere are additional state and local tax programs like workers comp and disability insurance, job training, paid family leave, state income taxes if your entity is registered in that state, local taxes, etc. As you might expect, higher cost of living states tend to be more liberal and have more programs that employers are expected to fund. Moving employees out of those states saves money.
