Taxes and international payments are a huge pain would be my guess.
Just hire people as contractors and it is extremely easy. They send you invoices periodically, you send them money through regular bank wire transfer.
(Edit: I see ljoshua beat me to the possibility for issues here but it's important to emphasize that it can be done, just play by the rules to avoid trouble down the line.)

#24Browsing through these jobs is enough to kill your faith in humanity. I don't think I saw any I'd want to work for regardless of salary. Cases in point: We're looking for a younger developer ... There will be no compensation for this job https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/20 You will be working with interesting people, namely me. https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/10 EDIT: I take back the initial statement, there are a lot…
You love Macs, open source software and tools, and cringe when you hear the words .NET

#25Interesting that most of the backend jobs look to be for Rails. I wonder if there's a correlation between Ruby/Rails developers and a more liberal policy to remote working...or if it's just because Rails shops are much more likely to flock to a 37signals site.

Looks like their new one is free but you can only list remote jobs - which is kind of awesome

https://jobs.37signals.com/ has been around for years - if I re-call it was not cheap to post jobs there. Looks like their new one is free but you can only list remote jobs - which is kind of awesome

Certainly possible but remember that "contractor" and "employee" have legal definitions. You can't "just" call an employee (by the legal definition) a contractor.

#30Kind of a weird place to be.
I wonder if there's some kind of hack that could allow small companies and startups to get around the policy issues without getting various regional governments upset with them.
