But someone should probably explain it to him huh

Your bonus and regular wage are taxed at the same rate. However employers have discretion to withhold bonus money at 20%. You’ll still be responsible for the short fall

like

They are permitted to use the supplemental rate bc it’s easy or could use the calculated amount based on the number of exemptions you chose on your W-4. Ask them to do it differently or just make an estimate tax payment in January and pay in some more.

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

I applied to a job at KPMG and did the first two rounds of interviews, general interview, then case study and competency. Never before have I had such a positive feedback at the end of an interview of the 2nd, both said really like me, I did well etc.
It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?
