Tech companies who have gone remote since the pandemic: do you get a stipend for home internet or a mobile hot spot for when your home internet goes out? Some of my employees are having issues that directly impact their ability to join customer calls, but my company’s IT department doesn’t offer any support. Wondering if that’s still the norm.

My company doesn't since that would be for a rare occurrence. If the calls are through teams them the app could be downloaded on a phone for that issue.

Also I work at a middle size fintech company. I was one of the lucky ones that was able to work fully remote. Granted the higher ups don't like remote work and we had a reorg change.

We receive $100 a month for internet + phone.
