What level and what type of company are you planning to go to?

It would probably be less in industry tbh

100k - 112k ish. 120k would be exceptionally strong in MCOL for 3 years of experience tbh.

90-100k base

Definitely 100k that's what I would aim for at least

Hi! I think it should not go below 100k. That's the minimum. You should aim for the max range.

Aim for a $100k-$115k base. Always negotiate, OP. Good luck!

Hello everyone, I am graduating this May as a double major in business management and operations and supply supply chain management. I interned at a large 3PL last summer and it led to a full time offer as a operations supervisor. I am supposed to start this June but for some reason I'm not sure if I am on the right track. I would love some insight on a good potential career path and if I should look for other opportunities or see how the one I have plays out. Thanks!

Curious for those in public accounting right now….are any of you open to leaving still with busy season coming closer?

I want to be respectful and not reach out to people if it’s too late as to not tempt them if it would look poorly on their resume. Would love your advice!

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.
