No it is not. A legal entity in Germany cannot offer a contract to someone in Poland. As a german entity you need to create a legal entity in Poland and offer a polish contract.
I don't understand why Poland is not mentioned in this article. I know a lot of Polish engineers working on H1B in a valley, but I don't know how exactly this number compares to Romanian engineers. What's more, at Microsoft, Facebook, Google and Nvidia Polish interns were the largest group of interns on J1 visa last year (as far as I know J1 is required for all countries except USA and Canada).
Also, a lot of arguments stated in this article also hold for Poland.
My point exactly. It's Poland. But this way folks here got 2 pieces of information at once: one about my selfish proposal and another about the situation in Europe ;P
I've noticed some international companies (and T-Mobile especially) use Poland as a testing ground for some interesting new solutions. It's a sufficiently large and developed country to provide a credible test sample, but at the same time insignificant enough (compared to Western Europe or US) to be able to write off any losses (financial or PR) in case of failure.
