Nice chair, back support?

Agree with this

I upgraded my router and made a big difference for me. If you don’t need to upgrade that, then maybe buy some cool speakers

Does this credit still apply? What’s the code?

Yes if you started after 9/1/2021. If so, DM me

Get an ipad air for notes. My favorite gadget. A good ergonomic chair. And irobot for picking up the crumbs due to constant snacking at the work desk. A mini treadmill surface for under the desk to get some extra steps in. Adopt an emotional support pet.

Ring light?

Good office chair, table lamp or desktop light. Wireless keyboard and mouse is a good set up too with a large mousepad

Logitech mx master mouse, Logitech k860 keyboard (both best in class), and a ring light to turn on during video calls

Meshed wireless router, chair, spare airpods

Invest it in the stock market.

Yea how do we get this stipend?

Did you start after 9/1/21?

If you have an accenture laptop it probably could use a RAM upgrade.

Good coffee machine!

Depends on your partner or whoever is approving the expense, so check in with them

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
