LATAM is not one talent market.

That is the biggest mistake U.S. companies make when hiring in Latin America. They search for “LATAM talent” as if Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Costa Rica, Panama, and Ecuador all offer the same skills, salary bands, English levels, holidays, and timezone overlap.

They do not.

A startup hiring a senior backend engineer should not use the same country strategy as a law firm hiring a bilingual intake specialist. A San Francisco SaaS company hiring customer support should not use the same country map as a New York fintech hiring a finance analyst. A founder hiring an [AI automation specialist](https://www.hireslink.com/hire/ai-automation-specialists) needs a different shortlist than a company hiring a junior virtual assistant.

The best LATAM hiring strategy is role-specific.

Start with the work, then choose the country.

## Best LATAM countries to hire from in 2026

Here is the practical country-by-country view for U.S. employers.

Good for customer-facing coordination and logistics-adjacent roles

Ecuador

Support, operations, admin, finance, software

The best country is not always the biggest country. It is the country where the role, manager timezone, salary range, English requirement, and hiring speed all line up.

For a full market overview, use HiresLink’s [Hiring in LATAM 2026 guide](https://www.hireslink.com/blog/hiring-latam-2026-complete-guide) alongside the [LATAM salary benchmark hub](https://www.hireslink.com/latam-salaries) before choosing where to start.

## Best overall country: Argentina

Argentina is usually one of the strongest LATAM countries for remote hiring, especially for technical, AI, finance, and senior operations roles.

It has a deep pool of software developers, product-minded operators, finance professionals, data talent, automation builders, and bilingual professionals who are used to working with U.S. and international companies.

Argentina hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

Backend developers, AI specialists, finance analysts, RevOps, operations managers, product roles

Timezone

Strong EST/CST overlap

English level

Strong among remote-ready candidates

Seniority

Strong mid, senior, and lead talent

Cost

Usually lower than U.S. hiring, but senior talent is not “cheap”

Watch-out

Economic volatility, holiday planning, and salary expectations for top talent

Argentina is a good first-search country when the role needs judgment, technical maturity, independence, and real-time collaboration with U.S. teams.

It is especially strong for companies hiring [nearshore developers](https://www.hireslink.com/candidates/developers), [AI specialists](https://www.hireslink.com/candidates/ai-specialists), backend engineers, automation builders, finance analysts, and technical operators.

The main mistake is treating Argentina as a low-cost-only market. The strongest Argentine candidates often have international experience and multiple offers. They are still usually more affordable than equivalent U.S. hires, but they should be positioned as strategic hires, not discount labor.

## Best for EST operations and customer-facing roles: Colombia

Colombia is one of the easiest LATAM countries for U.S. teams to work with because the timezone fit is excellent, especially for East Coast and Central U.S. companies.

It is also a strong market for customer support, sales development, operations, project coordination, customer success, finance support, recruiting, and software roles.

Colombia hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

Customer support, SDRs, operations, finance support, EAs, software developers

Timezone

Excellent EST/CST overlap

English level

Strong enough for many bilingual roles, but must be screened carefully

Seniority

Strong junior-to-mid and growing senior pool

Cost

Strong value for operations and customer-facing roles

Watch-out

Many public holidays, especially Monday holidays

Colombia is a good choice when the role depends on live collaboration. For example, a U.S. company hiring a customer support representative, SDR, operations coordinator, or executive assistant may get better daily rhythm from Colombia than from a technically stronger but less aligned country.

Colombia is also a good option for companies hiring technical roles that need frequent standups, support escalations, customer feedback loops, or product collaboration.

If the role requires consistent daily availability, review Colombia’s holiday calendar early and add local dates into onboarding. HiresLink’s [Colombia public holidays guide](https://www.hireslink.com/blog/colombia-public-holidays-2026) can help managers avoid scheduling launches or onboarding during local long weekends.

## Best for CST, MST, and PST teams: Mexico

Mexico is usually the best first-search country for U.S. companies in Central, Mountain, and Pacific timezones.

For Texas, California, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Washington, and other western U.S. teams, Mexico often gives the cleanest overlap. It also has a large and varied talent market across software, support, admin, customer operations, finance, sales, marketing, and bilingual coordination roles.

Mexico hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

SDRs, support, operations, admin, finance, engineering, bilingual roles

Timezone

Excellent for CST/MST/PST

English level

Strong candidates exist, but English screening matters

Seniority

Strong junior-to-senior pool depending on role

Cost

Strong value, especially for U.S.-facing operations

Watch-out

Multiple time zones and some region-specific DST rules

Mexico is often the best country for companies that need direct overlap with a West Coast or Texas-based manager.

A San Francisco company hiring customer support may want Mexico before Argentina. A Dallas company hiring an SDR may start with Mexico before Colombia. A Los Angeles founder hiring an executive assistant may prefer Mexico or Costa Rica because the daily overlap is easier.

For technical roles, Mexico can also be strong, but the best approach is to search by role rather than country only. A great senior backend developer may still come from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, or Chile depending on the stack.

If timezone is the main deciding factor, use the [LATAM time zones guide](https://www.hireslink.com/blog/latam-time-zones-guide-us-employers-2026) before finalizing the search.

## Best for technical scale: Brazil

Brazil has the largest talent market in LATAM. It is especially strong for software engineering, data, cloud, AI, product, design, DevOps, enterprise systems, and technical operations.

The main difference is that Brazil is Portuguese-speaking, while most other LATAM countries in this list are Spanish-speaking. That does not make Brazil a bad fit. It just means English screening and role fit matter more.

Brazil hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

Software developers, AI, data, cloud, DevOps, product, design, enterprise systems

Timezone

Strong for EST/CST, but city-dependent

English level

Strong candidates exist, but screen carefully

Seniority

Strong mid, senior, and specialist talent

Cost

Competitive for technical hiring compared with U.S. salaries

Watch-out

Portuguese market, multiple time zones, local holiday differences

Brazil is a strong option when the company needs technical depth and is willing to screen carefully for English, communication style, and U.S. work experience.

It can be especially useful for companies hiring [backend developers](https://www.hireslink.com/candidates/developers/backend), data engineers, AI integration engineers, product engineers, DevOps engineers, and design/product specialists.

The main operational mistake is writing “Brazil time” in a job post. Brazil has multiple time zones, so U.S. companies should confirm the candidate’s city before setting work hours.

For holiday planning, use HiresLink’s [Brazil public holidays guide](https://www.hireslink.com/blog/brazil-public-holidays-2026), especially if the role involves support coverage, finance close, or production releases.

## Best for senior professional roles: Chile

Chile is a strong LATAM market for professional, technical, finance, operations, and specialist roles.

It is not always the first country companies think of, but it can be a good fit when the role needs maturity, structure, technical competence, and strong business communication.

Chile hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

Engineering, finance, analytics, product, operations, professional services

Timezone

Strong for EST/CST, but DST matters

English level

Strong among remote-ready professional candidates

Seniority

Good senior and specialist pool

Cost

Good value, though not always the cheapest

Watch-out

DST changes and Fiestas Patrias holiday planning

Chile can work well for SaaS, fintech, operations-heavy companies, analytics teams, finance teams, and technical projects.

It is not always the best market if the company needs a large number of junior low-cost hires fast. But it is useful when the role requires reliability, seniority, and professional judgment.

For companies hiring AI, automation, or technical implementation roles, Chile can be part of the shortlist alongside Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.

## Best smaller market for senior independent hires: Uruguay

Uruguay is a smaller market, but it can be strong for experienced remote professionals.

The talent pool is not as large as Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, or Colombia. But for certain roles, Uruguay can produce high-quality candidates who are comfortable with remote work, international teams, and independent execution.

Uruguay hiring factor

Employer view

Best roles

Engineering, finance, operations, senior analysts, technical specialists

Timezone

Strong EST/CST overlap

English level

Strong among remote-ready professionals

Seniority

Smaller but good senior pool

Cost

Good value, but not the lowest-cost market

Watch-out

Smaller candidate volume and holiday-policy differences

Uruguay is usually not the first place to search if speed and volume matter most. But it can be a strong market for senior, independent, high-trust hires.

It works well for companies that want one strong person rather than a large hiring funnel.

## Best value markets for operations: Peru and Ecuador

Peru and Ecuador can be useful markets for U.S. companies hiring operations, support, admin, finance coordination, sales support, and bilingual remote roles.

They may not always have the same technical depth as Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, or Colombia, but they can be strong for practical, timezone-aligned business roles.

Country

Best for

Employer note

Peru

Operations, support, finance, sales, admin, software

Strong EST/CST overlap and good value

Ecuador

Support, operations, admin, finance, software

Good timezone fit and emerging remote talent pool

Peru can work well for companies hiring finance assistants, customer support reps, operations coordinators, virtual assistants, and junior-to-mid software roles.

Ecuador can be a useful option for companies that want U.S.-friendly hours, steady operations support, and bilingual coordination.

For these markets, screening matters. U.S. companies should test written English, work samples, tool fluency, response speed, and manager communication before making an offer.

## Best for bilingual support and coordination: Costa Rica and Panama

Costa Rica and Panama are smaller markets, but they can be strong for U.S.-aligned support, operations, admin, logistics, finance coordination, and customer-facing roles.

Country

Best for

Employer note

Costa Rica

Support, operations, finance, admin, bilingual roles

Strong U.S. timezone fit, especially CST/MST/PST

Panama

Support, operations, logistics, finance, bilingual roles

Excellent EST alignment and useful for customer-facing coordination

Costa Rica is especially useful for U.S. companies that want Central America overlap and professional customer-facing communication. Panama can be a good fit for logistics, finance coordination, bilingual support, and operations roles that need EST alignment.

These are not always the highest-volume markets, but they can produce strong fits when the role is clearly defined.

## Best LATAM countries by role

A country ranking is only useful if it maps back to hiring need.

Here is the practical role-based version.

Role

Best first-search countries

Why

Backend developer

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Chile, Uruguay

Strong technical depth and U.S. overlap

Frontend developer

Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Chile

Good engineering and product talent

AI automation specialist

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Chile

Strong technical + workflow talent

AI integration engineer

Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Chile

APIs, cloud, LLM APIs, production systems

Customer support rep

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Peru, Ecuador

Better live coverage and bilingual communication

SDR / BDR

Mexico, Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama, Argentina

Stronger coaching and U.S.-hours overlap

Executive assistant

Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Costa Rica, Panama

Strong daily manager overlap

Bookkeeper

Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile

Finance discipline and reporting overlap

Operations coordinator

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Peru, Ecuador

Day-to-day collaboration and process ownership

Product manager

Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Colombia

Strong seniority and cross-functional experience

Data analyst

Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay

Strong analytics and technical talent

RevOps specialist

Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Costa Rica

Sales tooling, CRM, reporting, and U.S. timezone fit

For technical and AI roles, HiresLink usually searches across multiple countries instead of locking into one market. For example, a company hiring an [AI integration engineer](https://www.hireslink.com/hire/ai-integration-engineers) may see strong candidates from Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, or Chile depending on API depth, English level, and tool stack.

## Best LATAM countries by U.S. timezone

Timezone should be part of the hiring scorecard.

U.S. team timezone

Best LATAM countries to start with

EST / ET

Colombia, Panama, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Chile

CST / CT

Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, Peru, Ecuador, Guatemala

MST / MT

Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Colombia

PST / PT

Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Colombia

For EST teams, most of LATAM works well. For CST teams, Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, and Peru are usually easy. For PST teams, Mexico and Central America are often better starting points for customer-facing roles.

That said, role seniority changes the equation. A senior engineer can usually work with less overlap than a support rep or executive assistant. A technical role hired through [staff augmentation](https://www.hireslink.com/services/staff-augmentation) may only need 3–4 hours of shared time if the team has good documentation and clear sprint planning.

## Best LATAM countries by company type

Different companies should prioritize different markets.

Company type

Best LATAM country mix

Early-stage SaaS startup

Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil

HealthTech startup

Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Chile

Fintech company

Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Colombia, Mexico

E-commerce brand

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador

B2B services company

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Argentina

Legal services firm

Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Panama, Costa Rica

Customer support operation

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Peru

AI-first startup

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Chile

Agency or marketing team

Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, Peru

Remote-first SMB

Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Costa Rica, Peru

A founder should not ask, “Which country is cheapest?”

A better question is, “Which country gives us the best mix of skill, timezone overlap, English, salary, speed, and retention for this exact role?”

That creates a typical annual savings range of **$114K–$247K**, depending on seniority and hiring structure.

Before deciding where to hire from, answer these questions:

Question

Why it matters

What timezone is the manager in?

Determines live collaboration window

Is the role customer-facing?

Customer-facing roles need stronger real-time overlap

What English level is required?

B2 may be enough for internal roles; C1 is better for client-facing work

How senior is the role?

Senior hires can work with less overlap and more async execution

What tools must the person know?

Some countries have stronger pools for specific stacks

Is the role technical or operational?

Technical roles may require a broader country search

Is the hire full-time or project-based?

Changes compensation and sourcing strategy

Do you need EOR support?

Affects compliance, payroll, contracts, and local employment handling

Are there local holidays to plan around?

Prevents onboarding and support gaps

What is the target salary band?

Helps avoid searching in markets that do not match compensation expectations

The best searches begin with a clear role scorecard, not a generic country preference.

If Julian wants HiresLink to rank for more commercial terms, this is also why country comparison blogs should internally link to role and service pages instead of only linking to related blogs. A country guide should help the reader move from research to hiring.

## Country selection scorecard

Use this scorecard before starting a search.

```text
LATAM Country Selection Scorecard

Company: [Company Name]
Role: [Role]
Manager location: [City / Timezone]
Customer timezone: [Timezone]
Hiring model: [EOR / Contractor / Direct / Consultant]
Target start date: [Date]

1. Role fit

[ ] The country has strong talent for this role
[ ] The country has enough seniority for this search
[ ] The candidate pool includes similar U.S.-facing experience
[ ] The required tools are common in the market

2. Timezone fit

[ ] At least 4 hours of useful overlap
[ ] Customer coverage window works
[ ] Manager can hold recurring meetings during normal hours
[ ] DST and city-level timezone issues are understood

3. English and communication

[ ] English level requirement defined
[ ] Written English test included
[ ] Live communication test included
[ ] Documentation ability tested

4. Salary fit

[ ] Salary band matches country and role
[ ] Seniority level is realistic for the budget
[ ] Fully loaded cost is understood
[ ] U.S. comparison cost is documented

5. Compliance and setup

[ ] Contractor vs EOR vs direct hire decided
[ ] IP and confidentiality covered
[ ] Payroll or invoice workflow defined
[ ] Local holidays added to onboarding plan

6. Hiring priority

[ ] Primary country:
[ ] Secondary countries:
[ ] Broader LATAM search approved:
```

This scorecard helps prevent the most common mistake: choosing a country based on one factor and discovering later that the role needed something else.

## When to search one country vs all of LATAM

A single-country search makes sense when:

-   the manager needs a very specific timezone
-   the role needs local market knowledge
-   the company already has team members in that country
-   payroll/EOR setup is already active there
-   customer coverage requires a specific schedule
-   the role needs Spanish or Portuguese in a specific market

A region-wide LATAM search makes sense when:

-   the role is technical or specialist
-   seniority matters more than exact country
-   the company wants the strongest possible shortlist
-   the salary band is flexible
-   the team can work async
-   the role can succeed with 3–5 hours of overlap
-   the company needs to hire quickly

For most U.S. startups, the best approach is a guided regional search with a few preferred countries. For example: “Search Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, and Chile first, but expand if a stronger candidate appears elsewhere.”

That is where [headhunting pro](https://www.hireslink.com/services/headhunting-pro) can help because the search can balance skill, country, timezone, English level, salary, and availability instead of relying on job board volume alone.

## Common mistakes when hiring remote talent in LATAM

## Mistake 1: Assuming the same salary across all LATAM countries

LATAM salary bands vary by country, role, English level, seniority, and international experience. A senior engineer in Brazil or Argentina will not cost the same as a junior operations assistant in Peru.

## Mistake 2: Choosing by country reputation only

Some founders hear “Argentina has great developers” or “Colombia is great for support” and stop there. Those are useful signals, but the final decision should be role-specific.

## Mistake 3: Ignoring timezone by U.S. city

New York, Austin, Denver, and San Francisco should not use the same hiring map.

## Mistake 4: Treating Brazil like Spanish-speaking LATAM

Brazil is a major LATAM market, but it is Portuguese-speaking. That matters for communication, sourcing, screening, and localization.

## Mistake 5: Hiring without a scorecard

Without a scorecard, companies over-index on charisma, resume keywords, or salary. A good scorecard compares role skills, communication, timezone, tools, and ownership.

## Mistake 6: Forgetting country holidays

Holiday planning matters for onboarding, support coverage, payroll, launches, and finance close. This is especially important if the hire is customer-facing.

## Mistake 7: Picking the cheapest option

The cheapest candidate is rarely the best remote hire. The better goal is lower total cost with strong execution, retention, timezone overlap, and communication.

## Compliance and EOR considerations by country

Hiring across LATAM is normal, but the structure matters.

U.S. companies should decide whether the hire will be:

-   a contractor
-   an EOR employee
-   a direct employee
-   a project-based consultant
-   a part-time specialist

The right structure depends on country, role, working hours, exclusivity, management style, benefits, and local labor requirements.

At minimum, the setup should cover:

Area

What to confirm

Worker classification

Contractor, EOR employee, direct employee, or consultant

IP assignment

Code, designs, workflows, scripts, documentation, and work product

Confidentiality

NDA, internal data, customer information, access restrictions

Payroll / invoices

USD invoicing, payment timing, local obligations

Local holidays

Which holidays are observed and how time off is handled

Equipment

Laptop, security tools, software access, device policy

Security

Password manager, access controls, API keys, audit logs

Termination and replacement

Notice periods, replacement support, handoff expectations

HiresLink supports compliant LATAM hiring through structured contracts and EOR-backed workflows, including hiring support through **Bait INC, a Delaware C-Corp**, where applicable. That helps U.S. companies manage LATAM hiring with cleaner documentation, USD invoicing, IP protection, onboarding, and support.

## Case study — U.S. SaaS company choosing the right countries by role

A U.S. SaaS company with **52 employees** needed to hire 4 remote roles:

-   senior backend developer
-   AI automation specialist
-   customer support representative
-   operations coordinator

The founder originally wanted to hire everyone from the same country to simplify management. But the roles had different requirements.

The backend developer needed technical depth and async maturity. The AI automation specialist needed workflow experience and stakeholder overlap. The customer support representative needed near-full EST coverage. The operations coordinator needed strong communication and daily overlap.

HiresLink built a role-by-role country map before sourcing.

**The search plan:**

Role

Why

Senior backend developer

AI automation specialist

Operations coordinator

**What happened:**

-   Intake call: **35 minutes**
-   Country-role scorecard created: **same week**
-   Shortlist delivered: **48 hours**
-   4 hires completed: **within 23 days**
-   Backend developer placed in Argentina
-   AI automation specialist placed in Mexico
-   Support representative placed in Colombia
-   Operations coordinator placed in Peru
-   12-month retention: **4 of 4 hires retained**

Companies that already found candidates

HiresLink is usually the strongest fit when the company needs help deciding which LATAM countries to search, which salary range to use, which roles to prioritize, and how to structure the hire.

A marketplace can work if the company already knows exactly what it needs and has time to screen. An EOR platform can work if the company already found the candidate. A managed LATAM hiring partner is stronger when the company needs both sourcing and operating guidance.

## FAQ

### What is the best country in LATAM to hire remote talent?

There is no single best country for every role. Argentina is strong for senior technical, AI, finance, and operations roles. Colombia is strong for EST support, sales, and operations. Mexico is strong for CST, MST, and PST teams. Brazil is strongest for technical scale. Chile and Uruguay are good for senior professional roles.

### What is the best LATAM country to hire developers?

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Chile, and Uruguay are usually the strongest starting points for developers. Brazil has the largest technical market, Argentina has strong senior engineering talent, Colombia and Mexico offer strong U.S. overlap, and Chile/Uruguay can be strong for senior technical hires.

### What is the best LATAM country for customer support?

Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Peru, and Ecuador are strong options for remote customer support. The right choice depends on the customer timezone, required English level, schedule, and whether the role needs phone, chat, email, or technical support.

### What is the best LATAM country for U.S. West Coast companies?

Mexico is usually the best first-search country for U.S. West Coast companies. Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua can also work well. Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador may work for morning-heavy collaboration, while Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay are better for senior async-friendly roles.

### Is Argentina better than Colombia for hiring remote talent?

Argentina is usually stronger for senior technical, AI, finance, and specialist roles. Colombia is usually stronger for EST customer support, sales, operations, and day-to-day U.S. collaboration. The best choice depends on the role.

### Is Mexico better than Argentina for U.S. hiring?

Mexico is often better for CST, MST, and PST timezone overlap, support, sales, admin, and bilingual coordination. Argentina is often better for senior technical, AI, finance, and specialist roles. A West Coast support role may favor Mexico, while a senior backend role may favor Argentina.

### Is Brazil a good country to hire remote developers?

Yes. Brazil has one of the largest technical talent markets in LATAM and can be strong for developers, data talent, cloud, AI, product, and design. U.S. companies should screen carefully for English level, timezone by city, and remote work experience.

### Should I hire from one LATAM country or across the region?

Hire from one country if timezone, local knowledge, payroll setup, or customer coverage requires it. Search across LATAM if the role is technical, senior, specialist, or hard to fill. A guided regional search usually produces a stronger shortlist.

### How much can U.S. companies save by hiring in LATAM?

Many U.S. companies save **40–60%** compared with equivalent U.S. hiring, depending on role, seniority, country, English level, and hiring model. HiresLink’s average cost savings benchmark is **48%**.

### How fast can HiresLink shortlist LATAM candidates?

HiresLink typically delivers a shortlist within **48 hours** after the intake call. Hiring speed depends on role clarity, salary range, English requirement, timezone needs, and candidate availability.

## Final takeaways

The best LATAM country to hire from depends on the role.

Use Argentina for senior technical, AI, finance, and operations talent. Use Colombia for EST support, sales, and operations. Use Mexico for CST, MST, and PST teams. Use Brazil when technical scale matters. Use Chile and Uruguay for senior professional and specialist roles. Use Costa Rica, Panama, Peru, and Ecuador for support, operations, admin, finance, and bilingual coordination.

The safest hiring process is:

1.  Define the role and seniority.
2.  Decide how much U.S. timezone overlap is required.
3.  Set the English level.
4.  Choose primary and secondary LATAM countries.
5.  Benchmark salary before posting.
6.  Decide whether the hire should be contractor, EOR, direct, or project-based.
7.  Shortlist by role fit, not country stereotype.

HiresLink helps U.S. companies hire LATAM talent with structured shortlists, salary benchmarks, EOR-backed workflows, contracts, onboarding, and practical country guidance.

A lower salary is useful, but salary savings alone do not make a remote hire productive. If your manager is in New York and the developer is asleep during most of the workday, everything takes longer. If your support team is in California and your SDR is 12 hours ahead, coaching becomes difficult. If your finance assistant is offline during month-end close, the cost savings lose value.
