Good for
  • Companies hiring in countries where they have no entity
  • Teams paying international contractors
  • US employers that want a PEO
  • Companies hiring contractors or employees in other countries
  • Teams that want one vendor for global payroll and compliance
  • Businesses with a mix of contractors and employees
Watch out for
  • Priced per person with starting figures only; EOR is $599 per employee per month
  • EOR needs annual contracts and a refundable reserve may be required
  • Country counts differ between pages (150+ on the home page, 100+ for payroll in the FAQ, 90+ for EOR on the pricing page)
  • Priced per person, so cost grows with each worker; EOR is $599 per employee per month
  • Global Payroll and HR prices are not published
  • Mostly aimed at cross-border hiring, not a US-only payroll for a small local team
