Without a solution like Oyster, it’s not even worth the hassle. You just end up deciding, ‘We’re not going to hire there.’ It basically restricts you from getting access to talent. Oyster takes that all away. That’s what makes Oyster great.”

We trust with Oyster that we did do it right because we enlisted their help to help us do these things perfectly. So from a leader perspective, I can sleep easy at night knowing that we're not breaking some law that I didn't even know existed.”

The service is seamless, the communication is very good, and there’s definitely a lot of time and cost saved. The cost of using Oyster is less than what it would cost for us to deliver the same service using external consultants.”

FAQs

What does global employment mean?

Global employment, or international employment, is the ability to employ, pay, and manage talent based in other countries. For example, if your business primarily operates in Canada, a global employment platform would enable your teams to hire and pay contractors and full-time Team Members located in other parts of the world.

Which countries can I hire talent in? Does the price vary?

Oyster helps you bring on Team Members in 180+ countries. Check out the complete list of countries we serve and the associated prices here.

Can I explore the Oyster platform for free?

You can create a free Oyster account to explore the platform and access plenty of complimentary resources and tools.

Do any Emergence Capital portfolio companies currently use Oyster?
