Hypothetical question
US-based startup (Delaware C-Corp). We want to hire 2-3 full-time developers in Lisbon. They want to be proper employees with benefits, not contractors.
Options I've heard about:
1. Set up a Portuguese subsidiary (sounds expensive/complex)
2. Use an Employer of Record like Deel or Remote
3. Just hire them as contractors and hope for the best
What's the actual right way to do this?
