Get an adjustable desk and fully adjustable monitor arms. I have long arms and found I needed a lower desk height, but I also needed to raise the height of my monitor to compensate for the lower desk.

I actually got a Vari electric standing desk but it has been hugely beneficial while sitting as well. Last piece for me is a full adjustable chair.

Yeah I like it a lot. I have seen people posting other brands such as Autonomous which may be just as good. If you have (or plan to get) dual monitors I recommend the 60” width version if you have the space for it.

I went with SmartDesk by Autonomous. Very happy!
Currently they are giving discount.

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

Is there any one time home office setup allowance still provided for recent new joiners?

Finally getting a chance to put together a home office space. Looking for tips, photos, ideas. I have two monitors and a laptop so my do a three screen set-up. Debating about getting a standing desk or putting money in a super comfy leather chair. Open to hearing what you have done!

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
