Which is especially silly in this case because there is some pretty cool research that comes out of Walmart Labs. Most of what's relevant to me is the applied crypto/searchable encryption stuff.
There's an excellent response to be made regarding the "silliness" of weighing cool research vs the ethics of the body doing the research, but making it explicitly would invoke Godwin's Law.
I'm always interested when I seen some country restrictions for remote jobs. In fact, a vast majority of these jobs are from US companies. So what's so special about US? Is dealing with paperwork for non-US candidates that hard for you?
- it's simpler for tax/legal purposes for them to hire people who are US residents and legal to work in the US.
- we're in the UK, and hire non-UK-based remote, but we've had a hard time if the timezone is more than a few hours off of London time. In the US, this pretty much restricts you to the Americas (which include a lot more than the US, of course, but this does make a decent chunk of non-US candidates incompatible for them).
