All the Fishes in the bowl, Don't you think we should be provided WFH allowances atleast for setup?
Many companys are providing but rest not. As Company's are planning to extend WFH so we should be given allowances. Many of us don't have comfortable Chairs and suitable table for office work purpose at our home.
Agree?

Deloitte paid too but takes some permutations to actually make it work (1 good chair + really bad table, 1 mediocre chair + 1 bad table, 1 really bad chair + decent table, 1 good table + good router, 1 table so bad that I don't let my guests see it + 1 good chair and a cushion, you get the drift)

I can't deny this . Getting a good chair suiting table s height took so much effort.i so miss office :(

Agree we must get a chair n a table for WFH for so long. It's not about rich or poor. Its about how company take care of their employees.

True that. It’s not too much to ask for anyway.

Yes i would agree .

But in my project even we had to chase for the shift allowances

It's interesting to see that ACN Consulting being a rich unit providing only 1k internet allowance per month. We expected more ;)

Some Pros and Cons seen in one or the other company. Need to be contented with what we have and learn to appreciate it

Working in a large health system as a quality professional WFH. I rarely see anyone else on my team, and when I do present findings I see no changes happening.

I’ve been in healthcare for years but graduated with a masters in last two years and was hoping for something different. I have been applying to so many jobs and not many calls back. Any advice ?
