    Sit/stand desks are also great for ergonomics. You can set your desk to whatever the right height for your monitors is.

    I worked at a bank where some of the offices had big fancy banker desks made of gorgeous hard wood and others had much newer sit-stand desks which while made of cheaper materials they did in fact allow for whatever height the user needed for best monitor ergonomics. I’d start my day standing to help me wake up, then around 11/lunch time shift to seated and there were some days I’d simply forget to put the desk down and be standing for the entire workday

      Yeah, it was 100% for ergonomics that AT&T provided them - I’m sure things are worse now, but back then they had a STRONG union with great benefits, so they overcompensated to save money long-term.
