What’s bad for you is incorrect posture and resting your wrist on the desk or a pad while actively using your wrist. If you sit at the right distance and height, you shouldn’t be bending your wrist up or down at all.

Hard for those of us who have different-than-expected-proportions. I have a custom built desk at home so it’s not a problem, but my work desk is just too high. Even at its highest, my chair doesn’t raise me up enough to allow me to sit ergonomically since I have a short torso. The vertical mouse helps make up for it, though.
I’m tall so most things are too short. If your work has an ergo specialist, however, you could possibly request a higher chair or lower desk. I’ve only had two jobs that were cool like that, tho.
