Which consulting firm has the best 401k match?
Filed for H1B extension, extension approved till aug-2024 (stamping not done), switched from tcs to infosys before stamping. I have new petition documents with me. Assuming infosys agrees to use my H1B, is there a possibility to file H1B transfer or reuse my visa.? Thanks

You kind of have to decide that when you’re under 25 though. The 20 year military retirement pension though is highly valuable.
No idea on how lucrative it is, but there are civilian employees as well

Whats the most you can earn tho and is the work interesting?

100k is just the base - tons of other allowances and benefits.
After 6 years that’s including housing allowance. Education allowance is not a free perk. Other perks are not part of TC. Retirement now is not dissimilar to employer 401k match. Just more generous.

Chair force at its finest!
It can be a super sustainable and chill job depending on your role and duty station… but the pay scale is very slow and the way stuff leave is calculated is different. Plus, bureaucracy!!
My friend graduated from USAFA a few years ago, and she had Uncle Sam pay for her master’s in cybersecurity. She now spends her weekends golfing on base and working 9-5 in the office.
On the flipside, some of her pilot classmates are scanning IDs at the gate waiting for a slot in pilot school 😬

…and this is why the other services don’t really consider the Air Force to be the military (except for most pilots and PJs).
It’s not a bad gig. My brother was a pilot in Air Force + officer. Is early retired at full pay and gets all the benefits. Plus he is now pilot at United with all of their benefits and pay. Prettttytt good. I don’t begrudge any of the vets this, tho. They did their time and deserve it and our respect.
