I have to meet the first employer that does the hotel bookings for me. I always need to sort it myself and expense back. The only thing the employer did is arranging a discounted room price.
Normally, meant that I spend at least one day a month doing my hotel/travel expenses. That's ~40-46 lost working days :)
- a4isms 5y agoPay yourself and expense it back is usually an SMB strategy for keeping costs down by offloading work onto employees. It’s not just your time that’s wasted, but all the work to organize expense reports, make sure you used the right codes, &c. It’s a headache for you and the folks in accounts, but at small scale, that works. But as the company grows, this becomes harder to justify. At some point they centralize a lot of this stuff, and when they do, many choose to start booking people into hotels that cater to businesses who book people into hotels.
