Layoff in IQVIA?
@iqvia
Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Creating a shell “taxi” company that he billed his cab rides to, while sharing a ride home from airport with a colleague who would use their corporate card for the ride
Deloitte had to change their expense policy after my fraternity brother spent a fortune on a client dinner including several bottles each of Dom and Cristal. He topped off the dinner with Louis XIII and kept the bottle. He quit before they could fire him.
Finally! The thread I’ve been waiting for
How do people feel about manual tip expenses? If you tip the hotel valet guys on a weekly basis and enter as a manual expense I realize there is no traceability
i expense this too
When I first got hired I was told someone had gotten fired from our office for expensing ninja throwing stars 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
These are incredible! All my stories are super petty compared to this.
SC1, might be true. Never had issues expensing coffee or lunch paid for using Square registers. Not sure how they would be easily able to tell the difference. Incidentally, Uncle D routinely flagged Seamless.
Strippers, furniture, non business trips, non existent team dinners (bought a meal but not with people from the firm/client), dinners at home not business related, clothes, all sorts of stuff.
Ok, how would you for any firm expense an escort? You just launder that through your meals or something right?
P1 I've heard the same story 🙄
Sooo. The book is about Booz, yes, but it’s not about anything glamorous. The show is nothing like the book. The show way over the top.
Following I could get a good script out of this for a few episodes
^^^ is it because of "high paying jobs" or other factors?
Usually involves liquor.
Wait so the 30k stripper story is true?
Details OP!
Exactly McK 2. McK7: these guys typically don’t get statements
@D3 I've heard that story, but aren't we allowed to use our AMEX for personal expenses as long as we don't charge them in? So technically allowed as long as he paid it off before leaving?
Technically right, D12. However, things like wellness subsidy, partially clearing costs as personal (eg, expensive meal or meal with SO), potential alt travel expenses that ends up not being submitted, etc., all are potential personal expenses that are allowed under policy. The other one that I've not seen people get in trouble over is if you unintentionally use the corp card, eg using Apple Pay. Clear as personal and be ready to explain if you get audited. Most likely nothing will happen, but review to be sure.
Some people don’t have a conscience
SA1, no, corporate policy is business expenses only, but they don't care if a few personal ones make it because of convenience (for example, you don't have to split room charges into different cards if you have a mix of business and personal)
How could anyone prove that someone is buying a gift card with a per diem. How does Deloitte distribute per diems?
I’ve been thinking of using Deloittes emergency childcare benefit to run a daycare.
$20 day per child cost for me.
Figure I could charge at least $60 for the day per child.
I would just round them up in the morning and then pick them up and drop them off after work.
Would be some decent coin.
Thoughts?
