You can probably score a used Aeron on Craigslist or FB marketplace for around $500

Came here to say this. I got a used Herman Miller Mirra 2 chair for 250ish (retails 800+) and love it. They last forever so used is fine if it's cosmetically acceptable. Use FB, OfferUp, Craigslist etc if you are interested

For one without wheels I really like noho. I got 2 for like 600

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!
