Comment on Ask HN: What prevents a company from hiring remote employees internationally?

Comments

I work as a contractor. None of the things related to legal employment matter in this case, I pay my own taxes, care about all the legal stuff, insurance etc. Switched 3 jurisdictions this year amid war, and for the company wasn't an issue, we just sign a new contract with the new legal entity in the new country. This can be tricky in some countries due to their laws (like aforementioned IR35 in UK), but it's usually all on contractor, not "employer".

Btw, I hate those companies which post their jobs as remote, but turns out it's "US only remote"
