Read Story →Pennsylvania was once an industrial heavyweight, and indeed it is still considered part of the Rust Belt. But the Pennsylvania of today also boasts a thriving startup scene and plays host to many Fortune 500 companies. Not only that, but cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh enjoy abundant arts, music, and entertainment. And then, of course, there are the hundreds of charming small towns that dot The Keystone State’s bucolic countryside. So, chances are, if your next employee is a Pennsylvanian, they won’t want to leave. Fortunately, in this era of remote work, collaborating across state lines is easy.Bringing on a new employee can be exciting, but there’s often a lot to do as well. You want to onboard your new hire as quickly and smoothly as possible to ensure their success at your organization. But before you get started with onboarding, you’ll need to register your company with the state of Pennsylvania.
