Work from home advocates clearly didn’t think through the fact that there are extremely talented devs in LatAm in the same time zone as them that can live like royalty on half their salary.
- vunderba 3y agoLol. Time zones differences are the least of an employers concerns if they're interested in hiring internationally. Taxes / liability / language differences are far more of an issue. This is why you see tons of positions that state "Remote US only".
- throwaway5959 3y agoI work with a number of employees in Eastern Europe and LatAm. Their English is fine and the taxes/liability stuff is all managed by the contracting company. Whenever they switch companies a new employee is swapped in by the company. It’s way easier than trying to find employees in southern CA.
