So, I am advisor to several startups at different stages. One of them is pretty well bootstraped and has had a good Seed round not long ago. (All this here in Mexico)
Talking with their head of Engineering he was asking my advice on how to better hire Android devs; apparently they are having problems of candidates rejecting their offers at the end of their long hiring process.
The reason is because they are avoiding giving the law benefits: some companies in Mexico pay you the minimum in a "straight " manner and the rest they pay in different ways, all this to avoid some taxes.
When he explained me those reasons I straight told him: I'll give you 2 answers: as a person and as your advisor. As a person I would never work for your company, because what you are doing is shady. Even if it doesn't directly affect me (it actually does affect employees in several ways, but not many know), if you are open to that, what else are you open to.
It's crazy how little companies value their employees.
