Lundi supports compliant employment in Turkey — Istanbul for tech and corporate, Ankara for engineering and government-adjacent, Izmir as a tertiary hub. Strong fit for cost-driven engineering, customer success, and back-office at scale. Calibrated for Turkish lira volatility.
Turkey has built a substantial engineering and customer success sector — Istanbul concentrates the corporate, finance, and tech ecosystem (Trendyol, Hepsiburada, Getir, plus a deep startup scene); Ankara adds engineering and government-adjacent talent; Izmir is a smaller tertiary hub. Turkish lira (TRY) has been highly volatile with significant ongoing devaluation — international employers typically structure USD-pegged or USD-equivalent compensation for senior roles. Employer social contributions run ~22.5% above gross. Strong fit for cost-driven engineering at scale, Turkish-language customer success, and Middle East-adjacent operations. For broader cost-driven scaling within EU compliance, Poland or Romania.
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

Under an indefinite contract, notice periods are determined by the length of the employee's service. The breakdown is as follows:
There is no notice period under a fixed-term contract.
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
