You don’t need to lose access to the entire US talent pool.
The company I work for paid high-mid US salaries before going remote. It has continued paying high-mid US salaries after going remote, just expanded to hiring from more locations.
So before we had access to the talent pool of one metro area in the US. Now we have access to the talent pool of all of the US besides a few very HCOL locations (which we didn’t have access to before anyway), and also most of the rest of the world. Our costs are the same as before, but hiring is easier and we can often get a higher caliber employee to fill an opening.
As the guy you replied to said—it was about expanding the talent pool, not about saving money.
