Finally had to return my office chair to work (not EY) and gave away my old office chair at the beginning of the pandemic. Suggestions on new office chairs or a gaming chair? I'd like to keep it on the cheaper side, hoping to get a black Friday deal.

Look at Staples. I've gotten a couple of office chairs from there for under $150 in the past couple years and they are just fine. Never had any issues with them and they are comfy.

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!
