I am here on my brother’s behalf. He is planning to exit the military sometime soon. He is considering coding boot camps. He would like to earn at least $65k, annually. Where should he get trained and where are good places for a veteran to work in software? Thank you.

If he has a secret clearance, a fed contractor would be a good fit. Places like Booz Allen, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed, Accenture or Deliotte's federal practices.

I graduated an online bootcamp a few years back and my starting salary was $67.5k. I'm currently at 113k two years later in a very chill company, so it's eminently doable.

Definitely harder in this economy though.

Thank you for the insight. Much appreciated.

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.

Thoughts on what to do?

I know I will get hated by saying this. Do you think gay pride events are portraying a bad image about our community to public?

I wish the pride where everybody can connect in a more friendly way (outdoor game- team work, dance, drink something not too sexual.) there are some good parts of pride tho. Any opinions?
