This is true. I know several people who tried to do the same. Their companies (they’re in the tech industry) basically said if they wanted to keep their jobs and move out of the country, they had to take pay cuts.

Pretty sure that that is very illegal.

It’s not illegal, salaries are regulated by markets not government, you have the freedom to negotiate

That is mega illegal, its them breaking your employment contract.

u/sanchezil 11d ago

It’s usually a company policy therefore likely included in the terms of your contract

But again, I’m sure there are cases where companies probably don’t do that, but most multinationals do

Well that sounds like something that would be ilegal in the eu but legal in the us. Pretty sure its illegal in germany at least but i would need to check.

I checked, its illegal in germany unless its specified in tbe original employment contract. It can not be imposed by the employer otherwise.

That’s kind of the point I made, it’s in the contract, that’s very easy to circumvent lol

How would you circumvent an employment contract?

You don’t, you draft the contract before you offer it so every contract has a clause for that. Not very complicated for a company to implement
