I accepted a contract offer (no benefits), that time I interviewed for another company permanent role but rejected. The contract company liked me & offered more than initial discussion. Now, the other company called after rejecting & want to offer knowing I’ve signed somewhere. They said my coding didn’t meet expectations but they decided to decrease their bar. Looks like they aren’t valuing me enough but offering! Is this a flag? Do u think sticking to where you are first choice is better?

Red flag? I use TD's robo investor for my IRA and personal investment portfolio. I noticed it chooses the same ETFs, although potentially a different ratio. This seems that it's not properly diversified for long and mid term. Should I be concerned, or just let the investment fly?

What do you estimate to be your personal functional inflation experienced over the last year?

I know the fed says 8.6%, but that number is averaged over many products normal people don’t frequently interact with.

I’m in FDD… I know I signed up for this but there’s something about the anxiety that comes on a Friday knowing that we still didn’t get access to VDR .. and how that anxiety grows as you enter the long weekend knowing that access can happen at any minute (or not) and you have to tippy-toe on the idea of potentially cancelling on your memorial weekend plans. I know the unpredictability of our job but phew 😮‍💨

Anyone with experience working at Endpoint Closing? Wondering what the culture is like

Got rejected from one of my desired tech companies, it's agitating but at least they didn't ghost me.

Tech companies who have gone remote since the pandemic: do you get a stipend for home internet or a mobile hot spot for when your home internet goes out? Some of my employees are having issues that directly impact their ability to join customer calls, but my company’s IT department doesn’t offer any support. Wondering if that’s still the norm.

Started at a big firm in July with high hopes- in the career path I wanted and I would be joining with other new grads.
After onboarding, it’s as if my team forgets about us every day. The training is non existent, there doesn’t seem to be any initiative to invest in new hires, my manager scolds me for not knowing enough yet gives no direction. I don’t want to waste time (colleagues mentioned it doesn’t get much better from here). Do I embrace the suck or look for other opportunities?
