How old are you and how much do you have in your 401k?

Hi, completely lost. I have about $6k to invest in a Roth IRA. What do you suggest I invest in? Put it all in one ETF? Mix it up? I’m just starting and have no idea what to do. Thanks

Can we use our wageworks card to load the EZ Pass in NY/NJ. I keep getting an error message

SO and I are debating contributing to 401k this year since the rate of return is around -11% on our portfolios this year. I believe it would be better off saving the cash in my account.

I'm thinking of contributing again when/if the market picks up next year. Thoughts?

Is San Francisco in a housing bubble?

Is there anyone in this bowl who resides in Austin and works for any of the major hospitals? Been trying to go back into a hospital/clinical setting since moving from DC last year. Would love to pick your brain on what the culture is like at your hospital.

I have 7+ years of healthcare experience doing process improvement, research, health policy, and health outcomes.

TIA

Hey guys,

I recently joined tcs and they told me to work at the Qualcomm office.

How will Qualcomm. What are benefits to the employee who comes from other companies to work at Qualcomm

Curious to know what other avenues people have taken in our industry to make more money. Currently getting OT which is nice since most places don’t offer that benefit but still doesn’t feel like it’s worth the long nights when the paycheck comes in.

If my parents give me money to help paying for my down payment for a house. Do either of us need to pay any tax on the money?

I think the answer is no... but does PwC have fertility benefits of any kind?

Opportunities in Life-Sciences/Healthcare PE or VC ?

I hear of UX/Product designers that make 120k out of school and recruiters are throwing out numbers even greater than that. No visibility into what my coworkers are making so I’m here.

I have 8 years of design experience in addition to design education, 3 of those years are in UX/Product design. I’m making $102k, med/vis/dental, up to 6% 401k match, unlimited PTO and options worth ~10k vested in a couple years. Bonus last year was ~10%. NYC startup.

Generally curious how many companies offer phone reimbursement? My last gig did not but the current one does. Legally it seems, all employers are required to do so if we use our phone in literally any capacity (video call, slack, teams, emails etc). How prevalent is the issue of not reimbursing phone dues?

My portfolio is up 7% today. Is there something I am missing? Why is market up today?

How much did you buy your house for and when, where and many rooms and condition?

Best benefits for midsized firm?

Any recs for the best priced auto insurance? Getting hosed by GEICO

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

Is it worth getting SPG LUXURY when you already have the SPG Amex?

Is now a good time to buy property in London? For investment purposes.

Thanks

Let’s hell each other out: how much does everyone get as a corporate rate for Equinox? I’ve been quoted $230/month for one location in NY and $250/month for all access. No initiation fee. Anyone else get a better rate?

Does anyone know if Bain is looking to grow through experienced hires? Currently at a T2 doing some DD and general work, but I’d love to work in PEG Bain & Company

How many times do you consider it ok to show the same house to the SAME prospect until he decides to buy it or not?
It's been 4 times so far.

Sharing my thoughts !!

In November 2021, i was working in Tcs at a package of 4.1 on Mainframes. I was not happy at all with my career. Learnt a new technology(Cloud). Gave interviews, rejected by few companies including Deloitte. Kept going..
Joined Accenture as a Cloud Engineer. In December 2022, I will be earning a package of 12. Got one certification, aiming for 2nd one. All this within a span of 12 months. These are brilliant times in tech. Keep hustling. Success will be yours.

Hi All, I’m thinking about getting certified in change management but not sure if I should go the Prosci route or CCMP route. CCMP is a lot cheaper compared to Prosci but would it measure up just the same?

I guess it would be similar to the discussion of the SHRM-SCP vs SPHR.

Is a book that doesn't work on mobile but looks awesome on a computer a big downer?

Is there a “busy season” in cybersecurity? Specifically in big 4.

I'm dealing with a local government agency. I have a decision approved or Denied sent by email but the basis of that decision is being snail mailed. It's driving me crazy. Now I have way less time to write an appeal then if they just sent it by email.

If you work in a firm/job you love, what are the reasons/factors that play into your happiness?

Is any one participating in Read Across America in March? What will you be reading?

Best air purifiers for bedrooms?

Looking for suggestions on weekend trips with a small dog. Bonus if I can use bonvoy points for hotels 🙂

Has anyone ever gone out to the W Hotel on Capitol Hill? Is it like a bar/club? Do you recommend it?

This merger blows. SPG had a legit no blackout policy but Marriott says they do no blackout but they have inventory control which is essentially the same shit. Such deceptive tactic. 😡😡

Those of you that live in nyc and have 2-3 kids that go to private school, what’s your HHI? Do you rent or buy? Want to know if my SO and I could swing it with our future kids…

Has anyone purchased the Stacy Blackman strategy guides?
