It may probably not work as an employee of the company due to tax,labor laws, IP, copyrights implications and issues for employer.

It can work out if you become an independent consultant and the company is ready to pay you for your work. There will be withholding tax@30% in that case unless you provide W8BEN to employer and claim lower treaty rate(15%).

Thanks I will look into this option.

If your employer is onboard then why not.
Most probably he might be not due to tax complications.
If you are not disclosing your correct work location on time sheet then it is ethics violation

Irs and ethics violation

Many friends of mine have taken remote positions with many tech companies . It’s allowed as long as the immigration team clears it

Oh sorry just realized you meant work FROM India. Nope that’s not allowed at all

It has tax implications for the company though, this likely won’t fly

No, you can’t do that. It has tax , labor law related etc implications for the company . It such a thing we’re possible, why even hire in US. They can just outsource to india or any low cost country

Well US Citizen and a OCI holder should be ok to work in both locations. Where does it state that a USC has to be in US for earning salary?

Thanks everyone, I have an offer to work on W2 for a US based employer. HR said its remote amd don't care where I am located.

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?
