Lori-Ann- How frustrating for you to go from the highs of getting your perfect job to the frustrations of the nitty-gritty of on-boarding which is bumpy and ineffective. Although companies have an expectation that people have the appropriate technology to work from home, the fact is that a majority of Americans don't. What works for us as individuals for personal work from home just isn't appropriate for teleworking. My suggestion before quitting is that you make a list of what the expectations were and request a meeting with HR. Be clear about the time line- when you were told about the expectations on having up to date computer and wifi connection. Assure them that you are still eager to work with the company (if you are) and explain how you're home system is not adequate to fulfill the the requirement of the position and request the company assist in updating your system. You wouldn't have done it so what is required is solely to fulfill your job requirements. If they are adamant that the onus is on you to shoulder the financial costs to update your computer equipment and wifi connection etc. then you have a choice. You gracefully say that given the financial outlay required for the job that currently you aren't in the position to do it and with great regret you will need to reconsider your acceptance of their job offer. Or you decide that job is worth the fronting of the financial outlay and you start. Either way- I think a lesson here not just for you but also for us on this platform is to ask the question of the organization -- what are the expectations of technology support in the home office to fulfill the job requirements and if our home system is not up to snuff, what will the organization provide to the employee to reach the expected level of quality.
