Big4 and Mid tier- All partners have a vesting period and if you leave before that 10 year mark , you dont get those retirement benefits correct?

So a medication I have been prescribed for years and always filled at CVS is now $300/month.

Not at my current job and not even in this decade, but I experienced sexual harassment at two different agencies in different ways.

And finally, when I left those agencies I felt free from it. Lately, I feel an immense guilt for not doing anything about it. Not for me but for any women that came after me by those two men...
