为什么到 2025 年末,“远程”工作仍然仅限于在美国、加拿大、英国和德国招聘?

2025 年一整年,我一直在关注 YC Jobs、RemoteOK、NoDesk、WeWorkRemotely 等招聘网站。纵观所有网站,我发现一个反复出现的现象:
许多公司都在招聘“远程”职位,但仅限于在美国、加拿大、英国或德国招聘。有时他们会增加一两个国家,但很少超出这个范围。
考虑到现在是 2025 年的最后一个季度,远程工作比以往任何时候都更加成熟,我试图理解这种现象背后的原因。
我希望创始人、招聘经理或有国际招聘经验的人能够解答以下几个问题:
* 主要的阻碍是法规的复杂性吗?(劳动法、合规性、当地注册、常设机构风险等)
* 主要问题是海外招聘的税收和薪资管理成本吗?
* 是否存在安全或责任方面的担忧,导致某些司法管辖区更容易合作?
* 仅仅是因为在全球范围内维护合规的雇佣结构成本高昂,还是有更深层次的战略原因?
* 最后:是否有证据表明,海外优秀工程师创造的价值无法抵消这些成本,或者根本不是经济方面的问题?
我带着真诚的好奇心提出这个问题,从外部来看,全球人才库应该是一个优势,尤其是对于远程优先的公司而言。但招聘限制依然存在,即使 Deel、Remote、Oyster 等工具已经成熟。
我很想听听有第一手经验的人的看法。

Throughout 2025, I've been following job boards like YC Jobs, RemoteOK, NoDesk, WeWorkRemotely, and others. Across all of them, I keep seeing a recurring pattern:<p>Many companies advertise "remote" roles, but hiring is limited to the US, Canada, UK, or Germany. Sometimes they add one or two more countries, but rarely anything beyond that.<p>Given that it's the last quarter of 2025 and remote work is more established than ever, I'm trying to understand the reasoning behind this.<p>A few questions I'm hoping founders, hiring managers, or people with international hiring experience can shed light on:<p>- Is the main blocker regulatory complexity? (employment law, compliance, local registrations, PE risk, etc.)<p>- Is it primarily about taxes and payroll overhead when hiring abroad?<p>- Are there security or liability concerns that make certain jurisdictions easier to work with?<p>- Is it simply the cost of maintaining compliant employment structures worldwide, or are there deeper strategic reasons?<p>- And finally: Is there evidence that the value produced by strong engineers abroad doesn't offset those costs, or is the issue not economic at all?<p>I'm asking out of genuine curiosity, from the outside, it seems like a global talent pool should be an advantage, especially for remote-first companies. But the hiring restrictions persist, even as tools like Deel, Remote, Oyster, etc. mature.<p>I'd love to hear perspectives from people who have dealt with this firsthand.
