Anyone else feel their firm-issued laptop specifications are not up to task of running the documentation software, various background processes, and opening hundred of supporting excel spreadsheets?

I had to turn auto replicate off because my computer runs so slow when it replicates databases

Running any formula that does any kind of sorting or vlookup takes forever unless you close every other program on the computer.

Citrix and the cloud here. It doesn't make a difference to me what my laptop does 😊

It's ridiculous that they won't provide us with laptops with the necessary specs considering how integral of a part of our job they are and the amount of time we spend on them

The PwC problem is that chrome is a massive memory hog. Having to keep multiple instances of it open to manage calendar and email all day makes it impossible to also have Aura, Notes, and Office running at the same time on these machines.

So it's not just me, ya I feel like we can cut a good fraction of our work hours if our computers were actually able to handle all the firm required programs. Sometimes it's the PC that's temporarily the bottleneck and not us having documentation writer's block or waiting on the client.
