Why didn’t you just order one from BDO’s tech support to begin with? Depends on how friendly you are with the expense approver in your office to run it through as “employee welfare” but you’ll likely need to attach the receipt if it wasn’t on the Amex and just say it’s to use at home

It’s a 2% AGI floor for unreimbursed business expenses

Your company might reimburse for it? I know Kpmg allows us to get new tech stuff (up to a certain amount) every year or two but it has to be ordered through a specific service. BDO might do something similar! I got a second monitor that Kpmg paid for

I’d bet they won’t approve, but it’s probably worth your time to at least ask whoever does the approving

I had to do the same thing and my exp was rejected

Depends on your OMP- but I’ve ordered one through the Company that was approved.

At EY it has to go through regional finance. No thanks.

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work.

First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?
