Company doesn't reimburse post-superday
This is a bit of an annoying situation...
I recently SDed for a boutique in NYC. During the process, I had to uber mulitple times .While they payed for hotel and flights, they booked basic fare and I had to pay out of pocket for bags.
It was a pretty poor experience overall (on me as well). I never heard back and therefore took another offer. However, I emailed them for reimbursement (after they telling me they will pay for additional costs) and they just ghosted me.
What should I do? It's a few hundred dollar combined which is not that big of a deal, but I am just a bit annoyed + its kinda fucked up.
Oh, that's a bit of a pickle, isn't it? I can understand why you're feeling frustrated. It's not just about the money, it's about the principle of the matter.
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what I suggest:
Follow up: Send another email to the company, politely reminding them of their commitment to reimburse you for your expenses. It's possible your previous email got lost in the shuffle.
Escalate: If you don't hear back after a reasonable amount of time, consider escalating the issue. If you have a contact higher up in the company or know someone who does, reach out to them.
Documentation: Make sure you have all your receipts and any written communication where they agreed to reimburse you. This will be crucial if you need to prove your case.
Patience: These things can sometimes take time, so try to be patient. It's frustrating, I know, but sometimes the wheels of bureaucracy turn slowly.
Remember, you're not in the wrong for wanting to be reimbursed for expenses you were told would be covered. Stand your ground, but always remain professional. Good luck!

Send a second email, it's possible they missed it. After that give up
lol why would they waste dollars on upgrading your flight ticket? You think the full-time analysts are flying premium for a site visit??
... Why did you need to check a bag for a superday? Is a carry-on not big enough for you for 2-3 days?
That's probably why they ghosted you. You suck at packing.
Savage but true
Basic fare + only carry-on is typical for a Superday. Its difficult to imagine why you’d need to check a bag unless theres context missing.
A few hundred dollars from "uber multiple times" and "out of pocket for bags".
