I believe it’s important to share my experience to highlight irregularities that other professionals should be aware of.
According to my contract, salary must be paid no later than the end of the following month. My June 2025 salary (due by July 31) has still not been paid, and my July salary also remains pending.
I have already returned the company laptop as requested. Despite this, the employer claims they are waiting for “validation” of the laptop or feedback from their client company before releasing payment. They have also mentioned that the value of the July salary is equal to the laptop price, yet they have not even released the overdue June salary, which is unrelated to equipment checks.
This practice is highly irregular: salary is a contractual obligation, not a conditional payment. Holding back two months’ wages despite returned equipment causes significant and unnecessary financial stress.
Timely, independent salary payments should be the basic standard for any professional workplace.
