Starting a new job and figuring out WFH desk set up. They gave me a laptop and $500 stipend for office furniture. I have a desk, chair, and iMac for myself. Trying to decide if I should get a second monitor on an arm for work, or if I should buy a new laptop for myself and a monitor I can plug each computer into at the start/end of work. I def want a big screen for personal use but it's tough to fit it all on one desk. What did you all do?

I want to dispose my office chair and i live in Newton. Anyone knows if i can leave it curbside or where i can check for the details?

Hi all, I'm curious how much of the 'One McKinsey' model is really true at least at the national level. I have an offer from a tier 2 city (Seattle, Denver, Austin, etc). I have always been fascinated by McKinsey's reputation of being able to work on a project anywhere in the country regardless of your home office and traveling often for work (yes I want this lifestyle). Is this still the case? Or is it generally hard to get on cases outside of your local office?
