If you begin the onboarding process as a senior backend engineer without inquiring as to what your working environment will be, then you're just incompetent.

    If you're talking to the IT department about workstation configuration without signing a contract and getting paid for it, you're being taken advantage of.

    Yes, it's reasonable, and smart, to ask people during the interview process about their tech stack. But there is no way I'm coordinating with IT on the setup and configuration of my workstation without a contract in place or before my start date.
