PSA for existing / future COBRA recipients through OMNICOM. If you are enrolled as a family of 2 or more people & haven’t completed this year’s open enrollment, you can switch all to “individual” plans at a lower cost. Same for anyone who missed the deadline and has open enrollment in February. Example: “family” of 2 on in/ out of network plan for $2,177/month. Family of 2 enrolled as “individuals” in the same plan was ~$1,665 total instead. Research & call to have all set up as individuals.

Is it just me or are there others who haven’t received information on what is even an option? I’ve asked three times and have been told “it will be coming in the mail”

I found this by chance. Everyone on a “family” plan can be on “individual” plans at a lower cost and the same coverage. I called and got a 2 day extension to elect benefits and put my family member on their own plan.

Received the offer from EY for M role, on call and email on Wednesday and also received a mail from the partner about it. Told them I will be accepting the offer. Had another offer & already received their contract , now I don't want to say no to the other firm before I sign the contract with EY. Which I am being told will only be ready next week. What is your experience after getting a confirmation on mail, how long could it take ?

Maybe this is the socialist in me but shouldn’t Moderna and Pfizer waive their patent exclusivity for their Covid vaccines? Don’t we have a moral obligation for the world to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible?

It blows my mind that many countries won’t be able to vaccinate most of their people until 2023. There should be access to vaccine generics
