https://www.remote.com/ https://www.remote.com/ is a proxy company with subsidiaries in all countries allowing you to hire employees legally in any country.
I discover it the other day, it's a game changer for remote international teams.
- 4ad 4y agoBeware, I can't speak for this exact one, but in my (pretty significant) experience these companies take a 35-45% cut of your gross income.
- spaniard89277 4y agoTheir fee is some hundred dollars, and on top of that they need to pay local taxes.
- 4ad 4y agoI will check it out, but to be honest, I am extremely skeptical. I have been using companies providing similar services for over a decade. Not only they have consistently all been very expensive (35%-45% cut)†, but they all required MASSIVE amounts of paperwork, both from the contracting company and from the "employee". Employee enrolment took at least a month, and this was when the employee was already a resident, and when we already had other employees in the same country. Otherwise it took much longer because specific contracts in the local language had to be written and approved. Employee resignation took months, and relocation also took months. This all sounds too good to be true. This is with US parent companies and EU employees. † The least I've seen was 20%, and it was a horror show so bad that it was worth it to switch to a 40% competitor.
- spaniard89277 4y agoThat sounds bad, but I have to tell you that I know a bunch of devs here in Spain working through this setup.
- spaniard89277 4y agoThere are plenty of competitors in this space.
- giorgioz 4y agoCould you mention the alternatives? I know only of remote.com and deel.com
