What did you like?
Ich bin über WorkMotion bei meinem deutschen Arbeitgeber angestellt und nutze die Plattform daher regelmäßig aus Employee-Sicht. Das Portal ist extrem übersichtlich und modern gestaltet. Das Einreichen von Spesen (Expenses) und das Verwalten von Dokumenten wie den monatlichen Gehaltsabrechnungen funktioniert absolut intuitiv und blitzschnell. Auch das anfängliche Onboarding lief komplett digital und ohne Medienbrüche ab. Der Support reagiert bei Fragen zu lokalen Verträgen extrem schnell und kompetent.
What did you not like?
Die Benachrichtigungen laufen aktuell primär über E-Mail (z. B. wenn eine neue Gehaltsabrechnung da ist). Hier würde ich mir für die Zukunft eine direkte Integration in Tools wie Slack oder Microsoft Teams wünschen, damit man den Status direkt im täglichen Workspace sieht.
Which problems are you solving with the product?
WorkMotion löst das Problem von bürokratischen und rechtlichen Hürden bei der internationalen Remote-Arbeit. Für mich als Angestellter bedeutet das: Ich kann völlig sorgenfrei und rechtssicher für ein tolles Unternehmen wie trbo arbeiten, während im Hintergrund mein lokaler Arbeitsvertrag, die Steuern und die Sozialabgaben perfekt und pünktlich geregelt werden. Absoluter Gamechanger für die Work-Life-Balance!

Meine Erfahrung mit WorkMotion war durchweg sehr positiv. Das Onboarding verlief reibungslos, und ich habe mich während des gesamten Prozesses gut unterstützt gefühlt. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich den Kundenservice – schnelle Reaktionszeiten, freundlich und immer hilfsbereit bei Fragen. Die Plattform ist intuitiv aufgebaut, sodass Dinge wie Gehaltsabrechnungen und Dokumente leicht zugänglich sind. Absolut empfehlenswert!
What did you not like?
habe nichts zu sagen. Alles is super .Aktuell habe ich keine Kritikpunkte. Kleinere Verbesserungen sind eher organisatorischer Natur und haben keinen Einfluss auf meine insgesamt sehr positive Erfahrung mit WorkMotion.
Which problems are you solving with the product?
Der größte Vorteil für mich ist die Sicherheit und Transparenz: Das Onboarding lief reibungslos, Gehaltsabrechnungen sind übersichtlich und pünktlich, und alle relevanten Dokumente sind jederzeit über die Plattform verfügbar.

Multi-Country Payroll
What did you like?
What I love most about WorkMotion is the freedom it gives me to work for companies from abroad, no matter where I am in the world. I didn’t have to relocate or deal with complicated legal paperwork—WorkMotion handled everything, from my contract to compliance with local labor laws. Getting paid in my local currency, with full benefits and security, gives me peace of mind. The process was smooth, and support was always there when I had questions. Thanks to WorkMotion, I get to work remotely for an amazing company while staying in the country I call home.
What did you not like?
If I had to point out a downside, it would be that some processes, like contract approvals or payroll adjustments, can take longer than expected due to local compliance regulations. While WorkMotion handles everything smoothly, there are occasional delays that can be frustrating, especially when waiting for salary payments or document updates. Also, since everything is done through a third party, communication between my employer and WorkMotion isn’t always seamless, which can create some back-and-forth. That said, their support team is helpful, and once things are set up, it’s mostly a hassle-free experience.
Which problems are you solving with the product?
WorkMotion has been a game-changer for me. The biggest benefit is that I get to work for an international company without needing to relocate or worry about visa issues. They handle all the legal and compliance aspects, ensuring that my contract aligns with local labor laws, which gives me job security and peace of mind.
I also get paid in my local currency with proper benefits like health insurance and paid leave—something that’s often tricky when working remotely for a foreign company. Plus, taxes and social security contributions are handled correctly, so I don’t have to stress about paperwork.

What did you like?
As an employee hired through WorkMotion, I particularly appreciate the transparency and professionalism of the process. Everything went smoothly – from the contract, which complies with local labor laws, to the clear information about salary, taxes, and benefits.
Additionally, I feel like I'm part of a global team without having to worry about complicated formalities. WorkMotion ensures that I can fully focus on my work.
What did you not like?
A potential drawback for companies is the initial complexity of managing legal and tax requirements across different countries. While WorkMotion simplifies this process, it may still seem a bit overwhelming at first. However, once set up, it ensures everything is handled smoothly and in compliance with local regulations.
Which problems are you solving with the product?
WorkMotion solves the challenge of managing complex legal, tax, and compliance requirements when hiring remote employees globally. By using WorkMotion, companies no longer need to navigate the complexities of different local laws and bureaucratic hurdles. The platform streamlines the entire hiring process, ensuring compliance and handling all administrative tasks.
The benefit I’ve realized is that I can focus on my work without worrying about legal issues or paperwork. For companies, it saves time and resources while enabling them to build and manage a diverse, global team with ease.

What did you like?
Mir gefällt besonders, dass WorkMotion viele HR-Prozesse in einer einzigen, übersichtlichen Plattform bündelt. Die Verwaltung von Urlaubsanträgen, die Einsicht in Urlaubstage und die Nachverfolgung von Genehmigungen sind einfach und transparent.
Besonders praktisch finde ich, dass wichtige Mitarbeiterinformationen und Dokumente zentral verfügbar sind. Dadurch werden viele Abstimmungen per E-Mail reduziert und alltägliche HR-Aufgaben lassen sich schneller und unkomplizierter erledigen.
What did you not like?
WorkMotion funktioniert insgesamt gut, aber einige Bereiche könnten noch verbessert werden. Besonders bei der Urlaubsverwaltung wäre eine übersichtlichere Darstellung von Urlaubssaldo, bereits eingereichten Anträgen und dem aktuellen Genehmigungsstatus hilfreich.
Auch detailliertere Benachrichtigungen bei Änderungen des Antragsstatus könnten den Prozess verbessern. So wäre man immer informiert, ohne die Plattform regelmäßig manuell überprüfen zu müssen.
Insgesamt sind dies eher kleinere Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten, da meine Erfahrungen mit WorkMotion bisher überwiegend positiv sind.
Which problems are you solving with the product?
WorkMotion vereinfacht und zentralisiert viele HR-Prozesse, die ansonsten über E-Mails, manuelle Abstimmungen oder verschiedene Systeme verwaltet werden müssten.
Besonders hilfreich ist für mich die einfache Verwaltung von Urlaubsanträgen, Urlaubssalden und Genehmigungsprozessen. Alle wichtigen Informationen sind an einem Ort verfügbar, sodass ich den Status meiner Anträge jederzeit selbst überprüfen kann.
Dadurch wird der administrative Aufwand reduziert, die Kommunikation mit HR wird effizienter und ich spare Zeit bei alltäglichen HR-Aufgaben. Insgesamt sorgt WorkMotion für mehr Transparenz, eine bessere Organisation und einen unkomplizierten Umgang mit HR-Prozessen.

WorkMotion made cross-border employment genuinely straightforward. We used it as an Employer of Record for a role in Romania, and the platform handled contracts, compliance, and onboarding in one clear, well-structured place. What stood out most was the responsiveness of the team — communication was prompt and transparent, and every question got a fast, thorough answer. The interface is easy to navigate and takes a lot of the complexity out of international hiring. Highly recommended for anyone building teams across borders.

Which problems are you solving with the product?
We used WorkMotion to hire and onboard a Country Manager in Romania without having to set up our own local legal entity. It let us employ compliantly under Romanian labour law, manage the contract and payroll centrally, and get the person started quickly — solving the classic challenge of entering a new market before you're ready to establish a local entity there.

Für mich bedeutet das absolute Rechtssicherheit, pünktliche Gehaltsabrechnungen und einen sorgenfreien Ablauf.
