Is getting a really nice (comfortable/ergonomic) home office chair worth it?

Recommendations for office chair , I have a bad back and need lumbar support.

Incoming analyst at McK next month (US office). Are consultants expected to be in office right now or is the firm still doing WFH?

I've been living with SO in another city. Want to know when I should move back to the McK home office city.

Hey beautiful people,
I’m 27Y and work in tech. Unfortunately my carpal tunnel is getting worst slowly. I’m worry that I still have like 45 years more to be retired and can’t stop working because I have a f* mortgage to pay 😭 I have a super ergonomic workstation, but I know my hand needs a long rest, and I can’t do it… Does anyone relate? What do you recommend?

Any recommendations for a work desk?
Not looking for something too big or pricey. Easy assembly / disassembly is a plus.
I see foldable desks going for $100. Any foldable standing desks out there?

1099 or w-2 ? I have been given the option though the company prefers w-2. It’s a day rate booking couple of months or more (no end date). I already have 1099 from similar company this year and am leaning towards 1099, but I don’t want to be difficult. I do take home office deduction and they are not supplying any equipment. Suggestions?

Hey all, new hire here! Going to receive a $250 wfh credit; any recs on what I should get to build out my home office?

Favorite office chair?

Joining Deloitte in 2weeks. What Deloitte send laptop, do they send extra monitor, keyboard and mouse? Or does it need to be purchased using $1000 productivity subsidy? And do we need to use Amex card to purchase and then reimburse?

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

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.

Recommendations for ergonomic office chair? Wfh is going to go on for awhile so want to invest. Budget is about $300

Hi everyone! Does anyone have suggestions on a good standing desk or ergonomic chair?

Anyone that is WFH but rents a small office space to work from?

I don't want to have to go to an office with coworkers, but I do feel like I'd be more productive getting out of home office a couple of days per week.

Feel the same?

Do you know what is the salary range for a Senior Manager II at Walmart Home Office?

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response” -Viktor Frankl

What do you do when you make the wrong career choice?

Forgive yourself. No one is perfect. You are learning. Wrong choices are part of the learning process.

Ask for forgiveness if your choice negatively impacted another.

Work on recognizing the space between stimulus and response. Ask for help if you need it.

All of the above will help you make a better choice next time.

Hi, Are there people here who have switched from being a doctor or dentist and went on and got an International healthcare management MBA (or just a standard MBA) and also have experiences from surgery/clinical side, pharmaceuticals, and bit of consulting? If yes, how was your transition? What were your starting roles and salaries? Thank you :)

Does Deloitte India give goodies and joining kit ? Though people are posting with pics in linkedin. I have joined Deloitte. But I got only laptop and bag. 🥱🥱

Just raised my first snapshot.
We can't see the review?

What is the average salary for an Employee Benefits Account Manager? I’ve been in the industry 6 years.

Maybe a dumb question for a lawyer, but is it normal to not be allowed to review an invention assignment agreement and post-employment restrictive covenant agreement at the offer letter stage? I’m told they can’t share prior to onboarding (I’ll be asked to sign them then) but I know I’m not going to sign some crazy non-compete so would like to see the drafts before accepting the offer.

EY application has turned to “We'd like to progress you to the next step in our recruiting process”. How soon does communication begin and typically how long is the process?

Not sure if other firms are the same, at EY we can add “🏳️‍🌈 I support inclusion” in our email sig. Most people from Unity ERG don’t. If you don’t, why not? Particularly during Pride month.

Do you feel like Latinos are being left out of the discussion or overlooked as more companies commit to anti-racism and inclusion efforts?

Anybody else have a laser jammer?
I have an ALP. It’s so much fun.

Thoughts on Mazda CX-30 2021? Or just the brand in general? And anyone in SC Bay Area selling?

Has anyone used ALgo to sell a car? Reviews look legit but the process feels sketchy

Can Bama just not win for once? Already annoyed that they’re in the CFP without a conference win.

Deloitte advisory has really good-looking people recruiting. Wow wow wow

@ACN: Have raise and bonus amounts been announced yet?

Does B4 let people go the same day as their resignation only if they’re going to a direct competitor? How about MBB or a tier 2 consulting firm?

Have people been let go immediately in case they go to FAANG or other industry firms?

Anyone have experience with Personal Capital for financial management and investing? Thinking about moving to them from Betterment. Higher fees, but real strategy instead of just ETFs.

Question from a newbie consultant - What are some good online courses/ books to improve consulting skills?

If I need Friday 4-5pm to go to a doctor's appointment, do I need to set a meeting invite to my manager in order not to be fired?

Bench time = ski time. Ready to get some true Slalom time in today

My manager basically gave me an unlimited budget to get whatever certifications I want. My career profile is similar to a Solution Architect- what should I get? I am thinking about Okta (I do some SAML work), Domo, ITIL, Six Sigma, Certified Scrum Product Owner, Six Sigma, anything else? I have AWS Cloud Practitioner already. I am hoping to pivot to Product Management or Data Science.

I find myself struggling the explain things with the same eloquence as my colleagues. How can I improve my consulting speak? Any recommended books?

Would you take an offer at EY or Apple? Apple recruiter mentioned that there will be early morning meetings (6 or 7am), EY recruiter said WLB in EY is best for big 4.

Know this may be a long shot in terms of actual responses but:
@PPMDs, what are your thoughts on the current/impending COVID specific layoffs at your firm?

E.G. Glad for the opportunity to reduce the headcount of mid performing SMs with little/no chance of making PPMD? Sad to see a firm you’re a part of undergo such unforeseen circumstances?

If I just chill on the bench for long will I still only get fired at the end of the year?

Are there any good movies or novels that show skill development - like follow through? Self-management? Money management? I read a lot of self help books so I know a lot of the theory, and books peppered with examples help, but I feel like most 1 paragraph examples don’t five justice to how hard it may be to change a behavior.
