It does at D. But I went with a waterproof Garmin since I sweat like a pig (like this morning where I was already drenched by about mile 5). Love it so far; GPS tracker is great. Only complaint is that it does take some time to sync to the satellites.

They've put a max on the reimbursement for the watch, and it's lower that the overall reimbursement budget. Read the faq's.

Cool I noticed the policy said fitness tracker/smart watch so I figured it was kosher but figured I'd poll the audience lol

Does the reimbursement period start and end on Jan 1 and Dec 31?

Anyone know if this is true for KPMGers?

I need a new driver are golf clubs covered? To lazy to turn my computer on and research myself.

I don't even know if PwC does this? 🤔

Does Pdubs offer this?

Have been running for the last few years and consistently get “dead feet” feeling after 3-4 miles. Feet go somewhat numb and I stop and stretch to relive the pain. Have tried a few different types of shoes (on cloud / altra / Nike) to no avail. Even tried the loosening of my shoes. Any advice? I’m in good shape and can cycle for 40-60 miles at a time so endurance isn’t the issue, it’s my feet. Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions!!!

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid?

I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
