Depends on the company and it’s market positioning / outlook from here on out. The VMWare / IBM / HPs of the world, it feels like they are playing “not to lose” rather than playing to win, and thus are dying a slow death. I don’t know that I would want to be there today much less 10 years from now. The ones that have proven they can reinvent themselves to stay relevant and lead from the front, i.e. Microsoft, absolutely.

What is old guard big tech?

They do very different work vs. FAANG. Depends what you’re interested in. Also depends on the packages, perks, and stability of the company/industry honestly.

Let's say I can't get a product or marketing job in tech, but I could get in via sales or customer success. Does working in those roles pigeonhole you, or is it easy to switch later? If you take a job as a customer success mgr for ads, or as a partnership mgr for learning solutions for industry X, are you going to get stuck in those products (ads, learning solutions), roles (CS, sales/partnerships), or target industry (X)?

How many tries did it take?

I feel like I want to branch out into real-estate but never lived anywhere more that 3 years. What would you do? I have cash to put a large down payment to avoid the high rates but am scared I have no roots and will move in another few years.

I have a Fidelity Brokeragelink account for my 401k. Every other year I switch from pre and post tax contributions. My money is spread over 3 ETFs currently. Does anyone know how this is tracked? Say if $100k is traditional 401k and $100k is Roth 401k, but they’re mixed, how can Fidelity track what funds are Roth/traditional? If I’m up 300% in ARKK, how can I or anyone else at fidelity tell if the cost basis was pre or post tax contributions?
