Thredup is setting up a small engineering team in India to drive global innovation. They aim to collaborate with the top-tier talent, tapping into India's technical expertise.
To achieve this, Wisemonk has outlined a strategic roadmap, including a project timeline, cost estimates, and competitive salary benchmarks. This will help achieve the objective of building a high-impact, India-based engineering team to support Thredup's continued growth.
Thredup will leverage an Employer of Record (EOR) arrangement to streamline recruitment and onboarding, allowing them to focus on identifying and nurturing the best talent while the EOR partner handles administrative complexities.
As we prepare to set up your India operations, we've mapped out a streamlined 8-week timeline to have your first team members onboarded and ready to hit the ground running.
In the first phase, we'll handle the full recruiting process - from sourcing top candidates to conducting interviews and making offers. In parallel, our team will finalize all the Employer of Record (EOR) details to ensure a seamless onboarding experience for your new hires.
One week before the official start date, we'll dispatch all necessary equipment and enroll new team members in benefits like health and life insurance. This will allow us to hit the ground running from day one, with everyone fully equipped and ready to contribute.
To give you a sense of the potential salary costs, we've estimated the projected annual salaries for key roles based on benchmarks for similar positions at leading e-commerce companies in India (Refer Appendix 1). These projections factor in a 20% increase to attract top talent to your team.
In addition to the salaries, we've also budgeted for one-time equipment costs of ₹150,000 per employee, as well as ₹80,000 per employee for annual benefits. We've accounted for these expenses, as well as ongoing costs for EOR fees, office expenses, and employee engagement activities, in our overall financial projections.
Additionally, you'll need to pay a one-time finder's fee when new hires join. For ongoing operations, we've projected costs for employee salaries, EOR fees, office expenses, and employee engagement in the table below:
Assumptions:
¹We have assumed a cost of INR 18,000 per seat for the office space for Bangalore CBD or any other CBDs.
²We have assumed a cost of INR 3,500 per month per employee for activities related to employee engagement including but not limited to team lunches/outings, festival/birthday celebrations, etc.
³ USD/INR assumed at 84.
