Just get a big USB battery pack - Why waste your money paying for another device (especially if
You have unlimited data) that you have to charge?

I second this. Unless you've got a plan that caps hotspot data at a low limit or are working in a location with horrible reception, setting up a hotspot is the way to go. You can easily get a good USB power bank that'll last multiple days of full hotspot usage.

Who is your provider? There is definitely a reason to not use your phone as a Hotspot for performance.

Big fan of the google nest. More aesthetically pleasing wifi device and you can buy extra spots to put around the house

Ex healthcare workers in Tech/Sales Engineering/ Healthcare consulting;
I have my masters in nursing/FNP (1 yr) making <K70 (Indiana) due to low patient census in my role. No desire for a different FNP job nor to return to bedside nursing (RN 5 yrs).

My company is in need of a update online, could use your opinions! We need to better showcase our culture (caring, supportive, fun, intelligent IT industry leaders) as well as diversity.

I don’t want to seem disingenuous or that we are singling out our diverse employees (asking for photos). We have a remote and on-site workforce about 350+ EEs.
