Stellar product to support our global team!

5.0 4 months ago

Pros:

Onboarding experience, from both the administrative and employee/contractor perspective, is some of the best I've experienced. Their CS team is also responsive and supportive. I love that they're open to UI feedback as well.

Cons:

They're still figuring out some UI bugs but again, because they're so open to customer feedback, this isn't a deal breaker for us.

Beyond the expensive subscription, expect high monetary and time costs due to their mistakes.

1.0 2 months ago

Comments: As mentioned in my cons section: I was hired through remote.com while living in the Netherlands. They connected me to a local "expert" who completely messed up their understanding of local regulation, which ended up costing me thousands of Euros. A year later when this was clear, I had to spend hours and hours communicating with them via chat support and sending them the written proof of their mess up. Not only did I need to do my own research, and I ended up being way more knowledgable than their own "expert" on the local regulation, and had to spend days trying to get in contact with someone senior. But most of all, they refused any form of compensation for their mistake. So to sum up again:
1. check your work calendar. Do you have 4 hours every week to spend on getting answers to issues that your remote employees face?
2. Is money not an issue for your employees, when remote.com messes up with local regulation?
Then they are the company for you.

Pros:

Amazing UI on their dashboard, makes it very simple to use on a day to day basis.

Cons:

They are not a real HR company, they provide a good looking platform, but then completely mess up on the HR side. This ended up costing a lot of money, and most of all for everyone worth considering it, time. tl;dr: 1. check your work calendar. Do you have 4 hours every week to spend on getting answers to issues that your remote employees face? 2. Is money not an issue for your employees, when remote.com messes up with local regulation? Then they are the company for you.

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: Remote is our key EOR partner and enables our business to move internationally without much issue. In general we are very happy with them.

Pros:

Great service, solid tech platform, reasonable pricing

Cons:

Payments used to be immediate now they take a couple days to be reflected, which is especially challenging as the company as a whole is very unforgiving of any payment delays and will freeze your account. It's very disruptive.

Out of Country Employees

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: Remote has made it tremendously easy to work with our out of country employees. They handle almost everything and keep us updated on anything we need to know or approve.

Pros:

Easy use for our out of the country employees.

Cons:

We have not terminated any employees with Remote, but we were informed that we would have to give plenty of notice if we were going to work with them to give a severance. This has not been an issue, I just have not used the process yet.

A go-to EOR system

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I've had a very positive experience with Remote so far, and am looking forward to more work with them. I would recommend Remote to any HR individual considering to expand their buisness to other countries in which they do not have subsidiaries.

Pros:

My most favoraite thing about Remote is the customer service. Other systems also provide employee payroll options but they do not have a superb customer service as Remote. Starting from designated Customer Success Manager to Use Happiness Team, they are always ready to help, and VERY responsive. Prior to Remote, they would take anywhere from 24-48 hours for a simple response, but Remote team will respond within 12-24 hour block.

Cons:

One thing I recently discovered is that their time-off tracking does not include childcare leave days. An employee has inquired about it only showing time-off days, but not government required childcare days.

Remote is fundamental to Phaidra

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Remote enabled Phaidra to build a global company featuring incredible talent that sit at the intersection of industrials and AI - a rare and hard to find talent pool. We started with Remote when they were a start-up themselves, which meant we grew as a company as they did - and were able to share feedback and see the implementation of new features we requested. The collaboration with Remote continues to be awesome and we intend to have Remote as a strategic partner as we scale.

Pros:

Remote's software enables Phaidra to bring on new talent from almost anywhere in the world. Their support team is helpful and thoughtful in their communication.

Cons:

It would be great to have more transparency into what stage new employees are in during onboarding. Specifics (like if Remote sent the onboarding email, etc.) would be great!

Hiring talent across the world made easy

5.0 2 years ago

Pros:

It made our life easier. Thanks to Remote we have been able to hire talent from countries where we don't have presence in, offer compliant contracts and save time on payroll management. We also received support with tax and legal issues specific to different cases. Whoever we had a problem, the Remote team has gone above and beyond to find a solution.

Cons:

Because onboarding employees in every country depends on local regulations, it requires and a proactive approach from the person doing the enrollment and being in contact with the onboarding/happiness team.
