The Work-Life Bowl

17d

works at 

KPMG

Looking for recommendations on a home office chair; wondering if high-end options are worth the price. I'm a fairly big guy (6' tall, 265lbs) looking for a new office chair. Work at a Big4 firm so I spend a considerable amount of time at my desk when WFH. I enjoy gaming after work, so I need a well-built chair that can stand up to 8-10+ hours of daily use. Question to the bowl: What has your experience been with higher-end chairs (e.g. Steelcase, Herman Miller, etc.)?

    Pros

    Somewhat flexible environment however, for this role you are required to be in the office 8-5PM 4-5 days a week.

    Cons

    Pay is not competitive with other sales roles. The industry is tanking and Steelcase is not adjusting to market salaries or pay in other sales positions outside of the industry. Until they do so key talent will keep leaving. Little room for growth within the sales org. within Grand Rapids. Leadership does not foster a positive environment.

    Pros

    Steelcase continues to be an industry leader with great brand recognition and core values. Good company culture with a strong focus on DEI. I feel supported with training and mentorship to continue growing as a leader for a team that enjoys learning together and having fun!

    Cons

    Good work/life balance but at times workloads can be high due to lean teams. Management has done a good job to help navigate this to ensure a positive employee experience.

    A Great Place to Work

    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Learning opportunities, strong company mission, entrepreneurial spirit in sales team, research and insights driven company. Networked organization with diverse internal opportunities.

    Cons

    Creative company that struggles all the issues of corporations / manufacturing. Streamlining and cleaning how on old systems takes time and money. Big change happens slowly. Hard for good ideas to change the company. Constantly changing metrics, internal benchmarking, and sales strategies. Local manager can make or break how you feel about the company. Depending on the region and role you may love or hate your job, have grow opportunities, or not.

    Pros

    Depending on the team there can be quite a bit of flexibility and sometimes a variety of opportunities.

    Career growth is limited to what can be achieved in your first three to five years for people of color. Beyond that it's best to move on if you're looking for growth.
