Have you seen a change in your team's engagement or morale due to any specific benefits or initiatives? We had resignations when our firm changed 401k to a yearly match from monthly..

Generally when organizations do crappy things, people leave.

Agreed. One thinking I have learned is that employees perceive the benefits available through the company as an extension of culture. When all they see is cost control for the company’s bottom line, all those Fun Friday activities fall short of building morale.

Years ago, we eliminated company match at the same time as a Reduction in Force (RIF). Over the next 6 months, leadership was surprised to see voluntary terminations increase. They banked on people staying out of loyalty.

Once a prominent figure left and voted the company match as the final straw that got them to begin a job search, Leadership quickly decided to put the match back in.

I think that so many people are just hanging on by a thread nowadays, when there is any change it becomes a reason and people bail.

Could be an intentional move to increase voluntary resignations.

Would have to finance the whole thing myself. Current net worth is 140k. Thoughts?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
