WFH Setup Suggestions

I wanted to create this thread as a way to talk about WFH setups (mouses, keyboards, chairs, etc.) and any suggestions people may have or things to stay away from. I’m an incoming analyst so wanted to get some suggestions and see what people had to say as I start looking into getting my WFH setup going.

Nahh, creamy linear switches are the way to go. If you had to go clicky, Kalih box jades or whites are for sure the most satisfying.

 

Any opinion on if wireless or wired keyboards are better? Have only heard the whites and jades in videos, they don’t get annoying after a while?

 

Whatever you do, don't skimp on the chair. Got a good one once covid started and college went online and has been amazing and will use for my WFH setup. If your bank is working in a hybrid model, definitely something to shell out on.

 

Chair - Herman Miller Aeron

Mouse - Logitech MX master 3

Keyboard - Not a keyboard buff but wireless vs wired is no difference

Table - Anything off IKEA will do

Computer/Laptop - Im guessing you'll use your banks but if for some reason you're not, get at least 16gb of ram and a good CPU i7 11 and up or AMD 7 and up

Monitor - Dual Monitor setup 27 inches, 2k res Dell has some nice ones
