Herman Miller hands down.
Don’t pay retail, use either craigslist, eBay or other similar marketplace site. Most companies end up reselling them, so you’ll be able to find one for much cheaper than retail

Yup. I got an Aeron. There is a reason it’s been the default office chair for more than 2 decades

Got a really solid chair off of amazon. Smugdesk ergonomic

If you're sitting long periods of time check out gaming or dispatcher chairs

I have a Herman Miller Embody myself, not for everyone, but well worth the investment. Also working with their warranty service is fairly easy.

I have been at my company for a little less than 4 years now. I’ve had the third highest sales last year out of a team of 50 and consistently the highest outbound calls per week. They told me I can start WFH once I hit $1mil in profit, but then rescinded right before I hit the goal. They have also denied simpler request like time off, when I know they have approved this before for others. I feel super unappreciated, but the money is great. I’m not sure if I should look elsewhere and start over?
