Two reasons why this probably happened. 1) you paid too little, and 2) you probably had people in-office too so the remote employees were second class workers. The solution is simple: pay above market rates and create a truly remote culture.

Doesn't matter. Do u think frauds will not apply to 2 jobs because one pays well ? Hiring remote is a lot harder and requires a lot more trust on both sides. Employers are finding that if they have the supply locally, they can choose not to do full remote. Right now, it is an employer market so they can do this.

Nah, I've heard of people doing 150k$ x2 which is a lot better than 150k$.

If they can keep up both of their jobs and the contract allows it, I don't see the problem.

The reality is that a lot of jobs don't require that much time and low performing people can go unnoticed for years.
