Equipment

If you’re joining us full-time, we will aim to ship your laptop to you a few weeks before your joining date. If you are a T6D network/freelance member, your own device will be required to be used for work.

Guidelines

1. Before you join, you get to choose the machine and OS that works for you. We usually default towards Apple and MacOS across all teams. If you’d like a windows laptop instead, do make a request to HR and you’ll be set up.
2. While the majority of our electronic hardware is protected under care plans, we expect you to treat all of it with care. Costs for all repairs and damage that isn't covered by insurance (if you drop or lose your device, misplaced or busted/worn peripherals) can be high, and depending on the circumstances, will have to be borne by the individual.
3. If there's a device or additional devices which are important for your work, do have a conversation with your manager on how to get access to them.

Laptop Refresh

Laptops can be refreshed if they’re outdated and is actively impeding your productivity. If you feel you need a new laptop to be effective at your job, reach out to your manager, and you'll be set up with a new machine.

Wear and tear

Do treat company property like it is your own. If there is significant wear and tear that needs service/ repair, a conversation would follow about bearing the cost of these repairs. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis, keeping in mind elements like tenure of the laptop being in your care, quality of the hardware at the time of receiving it, etc.

Exit protocol

The day after your exit, you will be required to courier the laptop back to the company address in the original packaging that you received it in. Do ensure that all necessary work-data has been backed up on cloud and shared with your reporting manager before you do so.
