Echoing the HP employee, submitting claims monthly for remote work expenses (phone/internet bills, office supplies, travel) is normal. Ive worked as an apps engineer at a couple BigCos with same policies and the process never bothered me, I submit my claims as soon as a trip ends or when I get the bills.
The thing I would press is to get paid fairly, and bi-weekly. I’ve never had a salaried job that was paid monthly.
- Rescis 8y agoI'm currently a software dev getting paid monthly, and fronting around 3 grand this month. It happens.
- Aeolun 8y agoIsn’t this why you have a corporate card?

- cobookman 8y agoGoogle let's you choose. But yes common practice. A huge benefit of fronting the costs is getting points on the spend, it adds up quickly
- sobani 8y ago> I’ve never had a salaried job that was paid monthly. Interesting. I'm Dutch and I've never heard of a permanent job that was not paid monthly. If someone told me they were not paid monthly, I would assume they are a temp with variable hours.
- lotsofpulp 8y agoBi-weekly, or every 2 weeks, is norm in US as far as I know. It's easier for everyone in my opinion, except maybe employers that want to take advantage of their employees.
- int_19h 8y agoIt's just a cultural convention, nothing more. Monthly seems to be the norm in Europe, bi-weekly in US and Canada. I've done both, and there's no practical difference.
- lotsofpulp 8y agoIt’s always beneficial to have your money faster. No reason employer should get to hold on to it longer and get interest and liquidity. In the extreme case, at least you’re not working a whole month before finding out employer has no money to pay you. And while you may legally be entitled to it, who knows how long the legal system delivers it to you.
