Got questions?
The questions people ask before they hire
01When do I start paying and are there any upfront costs?
You start paying once your engineer begins work, not before. There are no upfront fees, no recruitment fees and no setup costs. Sourcing and vetting are on us; you only pay the fixed monthly fee once someone is on your team.
02Is there a long-term contract or commitment?
No long-term lock-in. You can scale your team up or down as your needs change, with just 30 days notice to end an engagement.
03What happens if the developer isn't the right fit?
We replace them at no cost. If an engineer is not working out we source a replacement and manage the transition so your delivery keeps moving.
04How long does it take to get a developer onboarded?
We typically put two vetted candidates in front of you within 7 working days of understanding your requirements, and onboard your chosen engineer straight after.
05Who handles the legal, payroll, and compliance work?
We do, in full. Contracts, local employment compliance, payroll, taxes and benefits are all managed by Cloud Employee, so there is nothing for you to set up or administer.
06What is included in the monthly fee?
Everything: the engineer's salary, employer taxes, private healthcare, paid leave, hardware budget, annual salary reviews, and Cloud Employee's sourcing, payroll and account management. One fixed figure in your currency, with nothing billed on top.
