Alvarez & Marsal Alvarez & Marsal starting as D in PEPI soon. I'm in the market for some new technology, but don't want to buy if it'll be an option. LAPTOPS: what models are options? Is there a subsidized option to bring you own? MONITOR/PERIPHERALS: are there options to get things for WFH office? And if so, would it be unreasonable to hope to be approved for multiple monitors, including ultrawide, high end mouse+keyboard, etc? Call speaker?

I've earned the privilege. Best used to call attention when other formatting isn't available. GOT IT? ;)

Had to look this up on Spotify. Now googling how to safely remove icepick from eardrum.
You’re acting like the firm is a BK lol
Not in PEPI (different SL) but,
- firm provided laptops, it’ll get sent to you.
- there are options for phones, don’t know the plans
- there are ways to order monitors and peripherals through our IT portal (to my knowledge they don’t just reimburse for anything so hopefully it suffices per your “high end” taste)
- last I checked I know people have gotten 2 monitors

Got it thanks. Not trying to be elitist at all. I'm just planning on buying some things anyways but curious if it'll be supported by A&M hence, I don't want to waste any purchases. Tha ks for the insight.
Phone plans are ATT or Verizon, BYOD or purchase a discounted corporate phone , service is paid for by firm, as far as laptop it’s company provided. Peripherals not sure, didn’t get a stipend.
Are you coming in from industry? There are no BYOD laptops, my model is HP Elitebook but I think the they recently changed, not sure what. There’s a portal to order whatever you need for WFH within reason and yes you can order double monitors, keyboard, mouse and other peripherals. They don’t have an external speaker that I can recall but if you’re coming in as D into PEPI, I think you can afford one on your own….
