Getting tired of my kitchen chair. I’m 195cm (6ft5) and need something ergonomic. I’ve heard mixed cases for/against gaming chairs. I’ve also heard Herman Miller is the way to go on the office end. My budget is $500 as of now. Any suggestions? Tall fish perspectives appreciated!

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!
