Out of curiosity, how do you get paid, if you don't mind sharing? As the owner of a company, I can barely figure out how to legally pay people just in the USA, and every new state is a new headache. I can't even imagine trying to pay people across the world. And I'm already using 3rd party (Gusto) to manage it. But they don't do all the details like setting up your corporate entity in each place.

Does your paycheck come from a 3rd party service?

Greek here, we (a non-profit with 20+ employees and several contractors) are able to pay local people. Sometimes we hire contractors (people or companies) fron other European Union countries (mostly Germany and Spain). We would love to figure ways to pay people but it seems very complicated to do it ourselves.

Aren't there multiple companies (I don't want to promote any) doing just that: being intermediaries with corporate entities everywhere to enable other companies to hire locally?

Not OP, but I also work in a remote company. Our company uses deel.com. You only need to set up a corporate entity when the number of employees exceed a certain limit IIRC. When that happens, yes it's a bit of a hassle.
