why india & latin america don’t work like they used to

Too many companies are hiring from the same place. Salaries keep rising, almost as high as the U.S. People switch jobs quickly, so you lose talent fast. Many agencies focus on numbers, not quality.

    Latin America & India vs Emerging Markets

    Latin America & India

    • Overcrowded talent pools; too many companies hiring from the same places → harder to find good engineers
    • Salaries rising close to U.S. levels; high costs for replacement and rehiring
    • High turnover, frequent job-hopping, wasted training, and instability
    • Agencies push quantity over quality → poor matches and high turnover
    • Frequent rehiring, wasted onboarding/training, high salaries without long-term value
    • Can face cultural and communication challenges; more management overhead
    • Companies must navigate complex payroll, tax, and compliance issues
    • High risk of churn and poor ROI

    Emerging Markets (Central Asia)

    • Less crowded; untapped markets with access to loyal, highly skilled engineers
    • Lower salaries while still maintaining strong technical skill level
    • Engineers value stable U.S. jobs → longer tenure and stronger team consistency
    • Carefully vetted candidates with technical and communication skills
    • Long-term employees mean training investment pays off and costs stay predictable
    • Strong English and teamwork → easier collaboration with U.S. teams
    • Truss handles payroll, taxes, compliance, benefits, and equipment
    • 100% risk-free hiring → no payment until the right candidate is found
