Yes, to have the work visa before you come you have to mail your passport to your company for it to be processed after you have been hired. Then, it can take up to three months for them to grant you the visa and mail it back to you.
In my situation, I got the job and there was not enough time to get the visa. So I flew in on a round trip ticket since I had the tourist visa. But I used my return flight to visit home after three months since I was able to purchase the one way coming back.
