Home Office Chair thread.

What office chair you bought for WFH? Brand, model, price? Pros and Cons after using?

In an attempt to be healthier, I built a permanent standing desk. Now, once every couple hours my Apple Watch reminds me “it’s time to stand up” and I feel superior to all those chair sitters out there.

Are people called to chennai once every month especially SBA's @Tiger analytics? Or is it a permanent wfh for now?

Is anyone’s company offering to pay portion of your rent as home office expense? Especially if company is no longer paying for commercial office space?

Does Citi provide wfh for special cases ( personal needs) for new joiners?

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).

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?

What are the BCG ring fences and how is each one? Can you join any of them or are you required to do the one closest to your home office

What do you do when you have a crisis of confidence as a founder? I’d like to learn some structured approaches to dealing with it, but also maybe the answer is to just let all the feelings loose then regather?

Let's vote! Which startup type is most likely to have a dysfunctional or toxic work culture:

Helpful: Single founder bootstrapped startups
Smart: Single founder funded startups
Uplifting: Multiple founder bootstrapped startups
Funny: This poll is dumb.

Comment if you would have selected multiple founder funded startups!

Hi everyone
I recently got offer from TCS for 10 LPA and my current CTC is 7LPA with 2.5 years of experience. Am I being underpaid here?

One of my best friends growing up just passed away. We lost contact with each other a year or two after graduating high school and I recently came to learn he was was battling cancer the past 5 years and ultimately succumbed to the illness. He hid it well from everyone and led a very private life during it all. To make matters worse, he had just turned 25. Seeing pictures of the condition he was in towards the end of his fight broke my heart. I wish I had known so I could’ve been there for him.
