Being able to work from another country is almost always wort it to get to know you local tax regulation and get it sorted out. As a developer (my assumption based on this post being on this content plattform) you have to understand complex things and deal with them -> it's you main value proposition in being a problem solver.
Health package & Benefits - is pure marketing BS. If the pay is good it covers everything. Living in in a cheaper country doubly so.
The biggest reason I see why company are hesitant hiring oversees is because of trust and prosecution - because you can't get the law of your country imposed if your candidate/freelancer is residing in another. It's a huge risk for company to expose internal access to people you barely know and you and they know you can't prosecute them if any sort of conflict/dispute happens.
That's a good point! it's hard to run IP theft battles in other countries ๐
I would not say that Health and Benefits are useless unless the candidate lives in a country where that is paid for by taxes. They are also a tax-efficient way of paying more but at the same time not adding more tax pressure on the candidate. In my experience, none of my colleagues looked for remote jobs because they wanted to move to a different country with lower costs. Some moved out of the cities, but it's a big deal to move eg. children who still have to go to school.
To your point though, the most interesting areas for candidates to look at are the hiring company's policies and how much they pay. How many vacation days, public holidays, sick days, and maternal/paternal days are available.
