I caught in an argument with one of my friends, we were discussing the pros and cons of Professional employer organizations so called PEO. He suggested that the PEO saves a lot of administration headache, can also help small companies provide competitive benefits to their employees. He suggested that so far PEO is the best solution.
I no doubt agreed that PEO can save a lot of headache and is a good solution for small companies, but cannot be considered as best solution. A few months ago my company started using offshore employee leasing. In the beginning all my staff members were scared that we all are going to lose our jobs and we thought it is pure evil. Surprisingly it was not the case at all.
Let me first give a brief description that I work for a software company in Boca Raton Florida. We have a base product for office automation, and we customize our product according to user's requirements. My boss was always stressed out, because we were always buried in development and we never had enough staff. We had to invest more in programmers as compared to sales and that was holding our company back.
One of my boss's old friend suggested him an option of offshore employee leasing. There is this company called VTLGlobal, their corporate office is in Fort Myers Florida. At first my boss was not sure, then he said what the heck let's give it a chance and see how it goes. Initially we hired 3 programmers, they were good. They started helping us with our work load and my boss was spending less on 3 people then he would spend on one in-house programmer, he hired 3 more and we increased our sales staff. Now we are selling like crazy, because we have 6 programmers who are crunching code day and night. We all communicate with them and they are all pretty easy to work with. They work on our LAN and we use Skype to communicate with them.
I would highly recommend
VTLGlobal to small companies. In the new age of global economy every company has to find best resources to keep them a head of the competition and there is literally no solution better then offshore employee leasing.
