Building a home office from scratch and looking to get a couple of 27 inch monitors. What are the pros and cons of a curved monitor? I have never used one.

Do you know what is the salary range for a Senior Manager II at Walmart Home Office?

Wow. I finally got a standing desk and it is LIFE changing 🫶

Has anyone moved states and changed their home office / region? (Personal choice not project driven)....If so, what's the process? What approvals are needed?

Anyone have a standing desk recommendation between the Fully Jarvis vs Uplift V2 vs Autonomous Smartdesk 2? Leaning towards the Jarvis but the Autonomous one seems 50% cheaper, but can’t really tell what the drawbacks are according to their website/reviews

How did you get started in your career as an FA? I work in the home office and have been an assistant to an FA before. I have a network, I have ambition, I have credibility and connections at my firm..

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.

Have you ever tried to bring about a change/stood up for something at home/office etc. Did it succeed/fail? How was the experience?

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.

Thoughts on what to do?

Anyone have a good office chair recommendation? Really not trying to spend more than $150 but willing to go to $200 if there is a really good recommendation.

Thanks!

Found a good looking Herman Miller Aeron, used on CL. Worth the 400 bucks? Do not have a proper office chair at the moment

Welcome to the 30s and 40s singles bowl! Here’s to hoping the posts in this bowl are a bit more mature. Relying on the honor system here, try not to lie about your age.

Any connects for black design professionals?

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

- Corp Dev analyst role for a listed niche gambling company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Best corporates to join in Toronto after consulting?

Assuming your business case is solid enough, is it true that once you get to the presentation point, you’re basically good for GSAP? I’ve been hearing that GSAP is more competitive now

HR opinion: Do I have any leverage as a hospital nurse case manager in negotiating earned time? I have 15 years within the organization, left for 10 months to be remote during the pandemic while sorting out childcare as immunocompromised family helped. Now HR is restarting my ET as a new employee. I realize I left, but not on bad terms and I am an exemplar and respected employee. I thought I’d have the upper hand with the nursing shortage but I’m getting the “rules are rules” response. Help!?!

Tax ( federal & international) V.S. Valuation( financial advisory): which career path is better in terms of compensation, long term career growth, and exit opportunities ?

Hi All,
I got an offer from a different vendor to join morgan stanley. I leveraged to offer to directly join morgan stanley. Will this cause an issue? Can the vendor complain about me? I have not joined the vendor. I had only given interview with morgan for 2 different profiles.

Has anyone been successful in negotiating the schedule on a global pregnancy bill? My provider won't bill by visit and split the global cost into four payments all due by the 28th week. I don't understand how that's legal since it is so off the calendar of services and crosses calendar years (and insurance coverage), where most costs are incurred at the end of pregnancy with increased visit frequency and delivery.

What % of your gross income do you all put into savings?? I have my 401k at 6% (or whatever the min to match is) and then immediate put about 20% straight to savings. Young, but worried for future!

Tax senior with CPA at small firm. Best way to get to Big 4 audit? (LA or OC) Went to non-target so little to no alumni at B4. I don’t mind the switch to a lower title since audit was always my preference and was never a fan of tax (stayed local for family).

Has anyone had any luck with in getting a specific answer on what licensing is required for specific “edge” features (e.g. shared HCM or supplier model for FIN. How far into either can you go?).

PwC still feeling the hurt from FY16 - They just emailed out about target bonuses per level.. That's there way of saying "Please keep working, there's something in it for you too!"

Sounds like we need bumble for consultants

Has anyone rented out a space at a Marriott hotel for an event? Aren’t you supposed to get Bonvoy points based on the amount you spend?

Not looking for something too big or pricey. Easy assembly / disassembly is a plus.
