Posting this out of curiosity (follow up from a previous post since a lot of people replied confirming their companies are forcing RTO for remote hires). Why do you think that companies are forcing RTOs on employees that were hired as remote (even prior to COVID)? I understand some roles benefit from working at the same location
My thoughts on reasons:
1) force employees to quit so they can avoid layoffs
2) tax breaks on commercial spaces
3) older C suite execs that want to micromanage

Hi guys,

I got an offer from a product based company which is developing a cutting edge product and it is quite early.

I am feeling fear to join that it will have too much of work, kind of had to wear multiple hats and mostly to learn ds and algorithms.
Is this fear due to comfort zone or the lack of knowledge?

Please guys suggest me. I am not very brilliant guy.

Is this reasonable or am I missing something?

I started maxing my 401k from year 1 and I hope to have $5 million or more by the time I retire around 60. Wouldn’t it make sense to put all of my yearly $19,500 401k contribution to ROTH 401k instead of traditional 401k?

My reasoning is that I would pay 35% tax now and my remaining 65% would grow tax-free in ROTH 401k…. versus traditional 401k where I deposit 100% but every distribution will be taxed 35% assuming I make a lot in retirement.
