👋 We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer in Berlin or remote! 💻 Build high-quality supply chain tools for thousands of devs in the PHP ecosystem 🐘 with the makers of Composer.
We're a small experienced remote team, deeply caring about our customers and the quality of our product. 🧑🤝🧑 Help us maintain and improve key infrastructure for hundreds of businesses! 🎉
They need someone within 2 hours timezone difference from Berlin, so that counts me out. I’ve also found a job that I started in early March, so I’m not looking at the moment.
@Skoop@packagist Interesting is it would be, I suspect that with Packagist Conductors GmbH being a German company I'd run into tax issues while I'm still a UK citizen with the right to live and work only in the Netherlands and not in the EU as a whole.
@MarkBaker@Skoop@packagist We already have someone working with us in the UK, and had someone in the Netherlands, I imagine in principle there'd be a way to still make this work via e.g. an EOR company in the respective location, so that shouldn't stop you!
@MarkBaker ah, I did not realize you are only allowed in NL, not in the whole of EU. I thought this was a natural part of EU now that if you can work in one country, you can work in all
@Skoop@MarkBaker Not as a UK immigrant after Brexit. Only in the country where you settled. You can't be living in or moving to other countries, until your 5 years are "up".
However, that shouldn't stop people from working as a contractor (or at all, I am not sure) for an EU country.
@Skoop@derickr not so worrying now. Once I've got my results for the last two exams (assuming I've passed them both) I can apply to IND for naturalization
@derickr@MarkBaker@jaapio I am afraid you're wrong on that. If the negotiations fail and we get new elections, he'll crybaby about people not wanting to work with him and he'll get even more votes.
we're in a toxic friggin country here right now :(
@derickr from my point of view, I cannot argue against stupidity. Problem is many people are just angry, they are not reasonable. And if they get disappointed they will become more angry. Which will make them vote more extreme.
They only way to get a more sustainable systeem is to accomplish something that makes them less angry. So we can start talking again.
@derickr@Skoop@jaapio Trying to pass my Inburgering exams so that I can become a Dutchie and get the right to vote. That's the only legal step open to me at the moment.
@derickr@Skoop I'm not planning on moving from the Netherlands, not when I'm so close to completing my inburgering (waiting on the results of the last two exams), but I am concerned about the tax implications of remote working for a non-NL company
@derickr@Skoop But while I'm still British, I'll still make flapjack and chocolate tiffin. And tomorrow evening I'll be dressing up in all my Scottish regalia for a vossenjacht
