Global Ambition vs Local Chaos
Challenge
Chaos needed to build a team of on-the-ground license compliance specialists in markets like Vietnam, India, and Mexico. These weren't gig workers; they were full-time, integrated members of the team. Treating them as contractors wasn't an option.
"It was not possible to have them as contractors," explains Mincho Donev, Director of People and Culture. "That's where RemotePass comes in super handy. For us, it makes more sense than establishing an entity. For the employees, it makes sense because they have their health insurance, social security and all the standard benefits."
The ops issues:
- Growth blocker: The inability to hire full-time employees in key markets was stalling growth
- Compliance risk: The constant threat of "hidden labor agreements" and misclassification risks
- Talent retention: Top talent expects job security and benefits, things the contractor model simply couldn't offer
