Well, that depends. For example, the United States has a B1/B2 visa where you can do business things like meetings. That's not work. But still, if you are a tourist aka you get a rare B2 only visa then no what he did was not legal -- and just because he is C level doesn't mean he won't breach the law in this. Might be out of arrogance or ignorance, even.
His answer sounds like "I am a rich man, laws, pfft" to me.
- sidewndr46 4y agoI don't think it was quite that. But from the conversation, he apparently was of the opinion that wherever the business was incorporated at was his place of work. As in even if he was in Norway but the business was registered in New York, he'd be working in New York. I'm not an employment lawyer, but I don't think it works like that.
