Dedicated offshore employees start at about $1,800 a month in the Philippines. See the rate for your role, what the price covers, and what changes your quote.
Quick answer
A Connext dedicated team is a group of full-time offshore employees who work only for your company, priced as the employee’s actual compensation plus a Connext management fee. Connext recruits, employs, houses and manages them in-country. You interview and approve every hire and direct the daily work. Monthly all-in rates start near $1,800 per role.
Cost, speed and data safety are the first three questions buyers bring to Connext. Cost comes first, and it is the one most price lists answer worst.
A number with no stated country, seniority, hours or inclusions cannot be compared with another number. The tables below state all four.
Seat fees, platform charges and conversion penalties are the add-ons buyers ask about. Connext itemizes every variable item and confirms it in writing before you sign.
A low rate that needs a manager to watch it all day is not a saving. Connext places an in-country operations manager over each team, so your managers direct the work and do not run payroll, HR or facilities.
“Connext’s services in providing our business with a talented employee were unmatched. We have worked with four different outsourcing companies and no one can perform to the level of Connext.”

No. Recruiting cost is inside the management fee, and Connext charges you only once you choose the employee. Recruiting starts under a signed agreement with Connext.
The bill moves with the number of seats. Contracts are flexible, with no long-term lock-in, and you can adjust headcount without the legal or financial risk of local layoffs because Connext is the employer of record.
The largest lever for technical and finance roles; a smaller one for contact center roles.
Each country has its own rate card.
U.S.-aligned hours are the baseline. Overnight or shifted schedules can add differential pay.
Larger teams can qualify for a lower management fee.
A home setup is standard; a Connext office seat can add cost.
Standard equipment is in the rate; specialized hardware is quoted, or client can provide it.
Roles that handle PHI or PII need an elevated setup, priced as a line item.

The monthly gap is large, and the invisible costs on the U.S. side widen it.
Pay and benefits
For a U.S. hire, benefits averaged 30.0% of employer compensation cost for private industry workers in June 2026, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. With Connext, pay and benefits sit inside the monthly rate.
Recruiting
A U.S. hire means agency fees or internal recruiter time. With Connext, recruiting is included in the rate.
Management time
For a U.S. hire, your managers handle HR, payroll questions and performance. With Connext, an operations manager handles HR and in-country administration, and you direct the work.
Turnover
Gallup puts the cost of replacing an employee at one-half to two times annual salary. When a Connext employee leaves, Connext manages recruiting the replacement.
Infrastructure
A U.S. hire needs an office, equipment and software seats. A Connext employee comes with office, equipment and IT support (24/5).
Labor laws and compliance
A U.S. company can set up its own entity to hire offshore, but doing it for teams of 100 or fewer employees is not efficient, and navigating local labor laws from the U.S. is slow. Connext already knows the local laws and regulations, and as employer of record it handles payroll, benefits and employment-law compliance.
