- SkyAndSand 4y agoGood point, added that to the list of requirements in the original post. I am asking myself the same question.
- lmeyerov 4y agoAlso: hiring (PEO?) & firing (at-will). We do global remote contractors for those reasons + unclear equity, but would like to do more. Per-state US registrations / benefits / payroll are getting easy enough so minor overhead, equity is clear, and all states at-will. But getting that international is unclear.
- jokull 4y agoIs there something stopping a US company from issuing equity to foreign citizens?
- cascom 4y agoNo
- lmeyerov 4y agoIt takes the complexity of international hiring (vs contracting) and raises it up a notch. Your home country like the US doesn't care (afaict) but the country they are in will have extra levels of compliance to go through, including labor protections & equity laws. Likewise, if you were planning to use an EOR to simplify foreign registrations, that just got weirder too. And.... IANAL, we pay people to figure this stuff out or stay away from it.
