My new job literally said we don’t know how to ship laptop internationally so figure it out yourself

Typing this on said laptop that I had to buy with my own money btw.

Got a remote job with a US company. I’m in Turkey. They offered me the role and then in the same email said they don’t have a way to get equipment to me so I should buy what I need and they’ll reimburse.

Had to spend like $1800 on a laptop out of pocket before my first paycheck. Do you know how stressful that is?? What if they don’t actually reimburse me?

What if I fail probation and I’m just out 2 grand??

I get that international stuff is hard but also… you’re a tech company. Figure it out maybe?

Still waiting on that reimbursement btw. It’s been 3 weeks. Finance says it’s processing.

Cool cool cool.

Anyone else been put in this situation? Did you actually get your money back.
