Yes, Howdy can act as an Employer of Record (EOR) but that is just one of many paths to work with team members in LatAm. Howdy has entities throughout LatAm and have many options so you can build your team any way that suit your needs. Howdy facilitates labor contracts, manages statutory compliance, handles payroll and tax obligations, and administers full benefits for your team.
In other words? You tell us the role you need; Howdy takes care of everything else.
A traditional EOR handles the legal employment layer and passes through costs for everything else. Workspace, equipment, benefits, and administration are billed separately.
Howdy's model bundles all of that into a single 15% comprehensive service fee. There are no pass-through costs and no line-item surprises. You also get a dedicated recruiting team, physical Howdy offices across LatAm, performance coaching, and ongoing retention support. Your typical EOR provides none of these.
Howdy gives you access to the top 1% of LatAm engineering and professional talent, backed by a 98% retention rate across 12,500+ placements in eight countries. We have no startup fees, no recruiting fees, no long-term contracts, and no cancellation fees. A single 15% service fee covers employment, compliance, workspace, equipment, and performance support. You pay week-to-week and can start vetting candidates within 24 hours.
Howdy supports hiring across engineering, product, design, data, finance, operations, and administrative roles.
Technical roles include software engineers, DevOps engineers, machine learning engineers, data engineers, and AI engineers.
Non-technical roles include financial analysts, bookkeepers, executive assistants, graphic designers, social media specialists, and project managers, among others.
Bottom line? If a role can be performed remotely, Howdy can staff it.
