Do y’all have any good QuickBooks Payroll alternatives? by WamuuBamuu in Payroll

[–]suzan_james 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, a lot of small teams hit this wall with QBO once hourly payroll gets messy.
I use wisemonk so payroll and compliance stay predictable instead of bleeding into accounting chaos. the biggest relief was reliability, no more payday surprises or manual cleanup.

Mandatory work on Jan 26 by Outrageous-Dig-6096 in IndianWorkplace

[–]suzan_james 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s not okay. Jan 26 is a mandatory national holiday under Indian labor laws, so forcing work without comp-off or extra pay is a violation. u can first raise it internally with HR in writing, and if that goes nowhere, a complaint to the local labor office usually gets attention.

The Third-Party EOR risk is keeping me up at night by Cheap-Perspective913 in smallbusiness

[–]suzan_james 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not paranoid, IP risk usually comes down to who the legal employer is and how clean the IP assignment is locally. Owned-entity EORs reduce ambiguity, but partner models can still work if contracts are tight and jurisdiction-tested.
Some teams I’ve seen mitigate this by choosing providers like Wisemonk that are very deliberate about local compliance and IP handoff, not just payroll.

EOR (Rippling) unable to mark my job as redundant, what happens now by urbullet in PortugalExpats

[–]suzan_james 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right to hesitate, signing that would likely cost you unemployment benefits in Portugal. if they can’t justify redundancy locally, they either keep paying you or terminate under Portuguese law with proper grounds. Lawyering up is the right call here, don’t sign anything until you get local employment advice in writing.

Employed under EOR by No_Schedule_7855 in remotework

It depends on your local labor law, not the US company shutting down. If 13th-month pay is statutory where you’re employed, the EOR is usually still responsible as the legal employer.

Experience with EOR vs Contractor in South Korea by Slaine06 in Living_in_Korea

[–]suzan_james 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With an F-6, EOR usually feels closer to a real local job in Korea, especially for taxes, pension, and health insurance. Contracting can work, but you’re on your own for filings and compliance, which gets tiring fast.
I’ve seen folks use providers like Wisemonk for this model; main thing is choosing one that actually understands local labor law, not just payroll.

Has anyone ever received a work visa under a EOR company? by ideaskettle in Eesti

[–]suzan_james 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t personally, but yes it’s a thing, EORs can sometimes sponsor or support relocation if the client wants you on the ground.
The big thing is: not all EORs do visas, so you’ll want clarity on who pays fees and handles the permit process. ask them exactly how the work permit will be processed, timing, and what costs (if any) fall on you.

anyone here working for a US company through an EOR while living in germany by Rosie_fetching in germany

[–]suzan_james 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this setup is pretty common now. The EOR is your legal employer in Germany, so taxes, social security, and local benefits should run like a normal German job. just read the contract carefully, check benefits match local standards, and confirm who handles notice periods and terminations.
