Global payroll challenges
Our team went remote pretty quickly, and now we have employees and contractors spread across several countries. Payroll turned into this monthly scramble with different payment methods, deadlines, and spreadsheets flying around. Nothing is technically broken, but it feels way more complicated than it should be. I’m wondering how companies usually streamline global payroll and contractor payments without adding more tools and manual steps.

We were in the same situation a year ago, and the biggest shift was centralizing payments instead of handling payroll and contractors separately. Once everything ran through one flow, it was easier to track amounts, timing, and fees. Automation helped too, especially for recurring payouts. It didn’t eliminate local rules, but it reduced human error a lot. While researching options, we looked at how pangea.global structures global payouts and compliance in one system, which helped us see how fewer touchpoints can make payroll feel more routine instead of stressful.
