Earlier quoted context omitted.

I think https://remote.com does this too. Thanks for calling this out!

yes, and most of them can also help your employees relocate to a country where you don't have an entity via EOR (Employer of Record): few more suggestions: https://www.oysterhr.com https://gusto.com https://papayaglobal.com https://pilot.com

I didnt know that gusto actually did that. Funny because at some point one of their heads of Engineering was hiring but told me they did not hire outside the US . Go figure.
