#42One of the reasons is sanctions.
Might want to be careful entering into an employment contract if the other party is located in a country your government doesnt legally allow doing business with.

It seems straightforward to have a list of legally forbidden countries...?

#44It would be great if they could publish their salary bands. If you are advertising jobs to Washington State residents, by law, need to publish salary bands. This seems to be not compliant with our law.
In theory the website is advertising jobs to people in every labor market on earth. Since there is a huge variety of labor laws out there, I'm guessing the website violates many many laws.

wheres the line between a job board and an aggregator?
As far as I can tell this just links through to the actual job postings, which may or may not be compliant.
It will be an interesting transition period. I remember job ads telling Colorado residents they need not apply, but if you emailed them I bet it would have been fine.

#46Yeah the current "remote" really really sucks and sounds like snake-oil. It also give wrong stat when reading online comments. Many people that said it's easy for them often came from people live in the same city and country as those companies. "Remote" by default gives an impression that's it's global.
Why should remote mean global?
The same reason why some companies consider "US-only" to be remote

It’s also pretty straightforward to work through a VPN and get paid out to foreign accounts.

It's much more complicated than that. First you have to check your countries list of sanctions, and this is bizarrely difficult.
1. You might be able to work for most companies in a country, but that specific company (or type of activity) is sanctioned.
2. You might be ok for a while, but a sanctioned individual buys a stake and suddenly becomes not ok.
3. The employment itself might not be sanctioned, but your bank flags it as suspicious so payments are rejected and you run into other problems.
For what it's worth, you can run a free check on ComplyAdvantage (full disclosure - that's my employer). https://complyadvantage.com/complytry/
All that being said, there are plenty of remote jobs available where this isn't a problem at all.
