Thoughts on the economy? Being a first year associate would I be affected by layoffs?

Is severance taxed higher? I got 1 month of pay but seemed to be taxed much higher

Had a fight with my MD or let's say more like argument. After that the next 2 months was endless nitpicking and pulling me for mistakes that aren't really in my control.

Post 3 months, I apply for a transfer. Transfer process delayed for some process reasons
No negatives/issues in my f22 feedback. Utilization above target. Way Above average
Recently fired without reason
Who should I escalate to?

PS: Ignore typos. Written in anger

Are PMs getting laid off now?

How do you recommend dealing with a partner senior to you trying to do anything possible to push you out, force you to quit, or get you fired for years? Owner knows my abilities and likes me (contd)

It’s Wednesday! How we feeling? Any tea? Heard stealth layoff are happening but not 100% sure if it actually happening.

What are some concrete reasons why someone in consulting would be fired, other than the obvious stupid things?

Entering my 15th week unstaffed for the year. Does Deloitte do layoffs for low utilization? Mine is around 60%

Is it true that EY is mulling over layoffs as client projects are reducing..?

Tax Senior here. I’m well liked around the office, I put in the hours and work hard, I haven’t had any dumpster fire projects, but I am a mediocre performer compared to my peers (not as strong project management, communication, not as confident). I just got told they’re firing me. Should I expect severance? Have other people been fired for similar? What did you do with your career?

Curious is anybody seeing layoffs in consulting? How busy are your cyber practices?

Boyfriend has seemed to be dropping a ton on me lately, even after I got bad news that my company is t doing so hot this week and layoffs are approaching. First it was that we may be moving to another state for his job, then it was that his brother may need to move in with us for a few months after he graduates

It’s just a bit overwhelming at this time and I’m not sure how to communicate through all of this being thrown at me. 3 yrs together and we were friends for many years before that.

Just heard EY is about to make more layoffs in audit too

Pizza recs for NY style pizza? Aware of antico’s & felini’s (not biggest fan) but looking to explore

At a different job I had a customer trying to swindle me in telling me that there was a deal in an item that never had a deal or promotion for sale so he made me scan the item 20 times before believing me. Obviously, he finally let it go but I scan it with an inventory scanner that showed me all of the sale price promotions if there were any

How you came into the company will define your path. That’s why you’ll never be successful switching departments.

So wanna run something by you all. Looking at insurance plans. There are 4 plans that allow an HSA. 3 of the 4 are identical.
500 firm contribution to HSA = ~21/ pay period. Add that to lowest HSA premium plan. It still comes out lower than the out 3 plans. So what am I missing?

Custodial or 529 for child?

Do OPTUM gives reimbursement for broadband installation?

Finally had my busy season cry after the staff told the team that he put in his two weeks. I'm crying because 1. We are so screwed and 2. why don't I have the courage to do something like that.
I'm turning 29 this year and usually a stone-hearted bitch but never failed to cry during busy seasons. I think it's time to get out.

I want to quit without a job lined up. This sucks so bad that I don't even have words for.

TD Ameritrade vs Etrade vs Fidelity.... any big differences or are they all more or less the same user interface? Mostly for trading stocks options and ETF.

I just heard recently that if you refinance and your house appraises at 20% more than the amount owed, you can remove PMI. Is this correct? Getting a divorce and trying to keep the house but moving from a VA to a traditional loan and would rather not pay PMI if I don’t have to. House was purchased for $460k no money down (VA loan), refinanced at $450k to lower payments $400/month, now have $430k left on the loan... would it have to appraise for $516k?

35/m sole earner for a family with 2 kids. Want a life insurance with a ~$2m payout (to cover nice funeral, mortgage, kids college, spending money for the wife until she finds husband no.2 etc). Should I go with term, permanent or one indexed to a fund? Also, should I get one policy or is there any advantage to taking out multiple?

Creating a 529 for myself before having kids…Should I setup a 529 for myself?

I don’t currently have kids but probably will in the future (31M, single now). Alternatively, I may go back to school at some point, or I’d be happy to disperse/gift the $$ to my nieces and nephews too… what’s my upside/downside?

Looking to put $5K in the market. Which ones would you buy? Lululemon, delta airlines, Peleton, docusign, Zoom, etsy. Any that I’ve missed and should consider? Already have MSFT, BRKB, NVDA, BABA and multiple broad ETFs

Really struggling with where to invest a few 100Ks (depreciating in the bank currently) in this market. Everything is at historically high price and it seems like I might just wait out for next large dip in 5-6 months vs investing now? What is your advice? Any stocks/ETFs?

Thoughts on vanguard money market funds to replace HYSA in today’s market?

Thoughts on brk.b for long term? Thinking of getting in at this point.

I have a lot of exposure to big tech and sp500 across my brokerage account and retirement accounts. I recently opened a Roth IRA and have 6k in it to invest. I know the default strategy is to invest in a fund that tracks sp500 but I do that everywhere else regularly. Is there anything else like VYM you recommend? I’m targeting dividend growth ones since it’s a Roth IRA ..

GME and AMC are not doing well today 😂

Does anyone mind sharing how they are saving for the future? Or just securing yourself? I have stocks/bounds, 401k, regular (1) savings/ (2) checking, about to open a self found Roth IRA. But, what else am missing? Should I do a health found? I’m also starting a bit later at 34, so I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do. Any advice?

Can someone clarify under Biden's new proposed capital gains tax, LT capital gains are now income? Meaning if I sold above $1m worth of stock, I'd be taxed at 40% regardless of annual income?

HSA vs FSA. My current employer doesn’t offer HSA but, offers FSA. HSA is no brainer. But, not sure about FSA. Any advice??

Want to buy a house in bay area? Is this a good time? Thoughts?

Just a discussion thread, but I feel like this is a good bowl to ask this. Does anyone else look at the vast majority of folks around you and think “damn, we are so over leveraged as a society?” Or am I just crazy?

What are some good platforms I can use to invest in Bitcoin? (Other than Robinhood)

Starting to get into investing and generally a pretty risk averse person so not out here trying to make fast money. What mediums do people generally use to invest? Think I’m too easily stressed to pick individual stocks, but happy to take suggestions for platforms for both. TIA!
