I am on week 9 of wfh. Since then I have worked from my carpet floor and now I’ve been working from my bed (due to my butt and back hurting). As a result, I am looking to buy a desk and ergonomic chair since we aren’t going back to the office for a while. Could y’all please drop amazon specific links to affordable desks and chairs? No more than $175 for each. Having trouble finding any decent ones that fit this criteria

Just putting it out there for those at EY who don't know it yet, but you can expense these as fitness/health related.

I knew about the chair, but even the desk?

Buy MyoChair ($125), Buy SmartDesk 2 frame only ($275) using the discount. Buy a table top from ikea for $10. You are good to go. See here:

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
