Pulse check, are your firms cutting benefits? BCG has been for the last year (intelligently timed to coincide with our raises, which were appreciated). Wondering if this is a broader trend.

I don’t use or pay attention to most of my benefits. I mean yeah I maximize firm’s 401k match, I do a health plant etc. but think about things like mental health benefit or financial wellness / planning benefit. These miscellaneous things I don’t really pay attention to or utilize. My major health plan hasn’t changed nor has the 401k match, so I’m inclined to say no, but to the extent there’s a lesser benefit that’s been taken away that I’ve never cared for, I couldn’t tell you. My general sense or feeling is that our benefits haven’t changed substantially, but I could be wrong since I’m not an expert.

The answer is “no, I don’t think so, but could be wrong”. The provided response both addresses the question as well as provides my qualifications for addressing the question. Do you happen to be a benefits representative and feel that you can adequately speak to all benefits offered by your firm?

Should I accept the offer or renegotiate?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
