It was a joke. Did I say anything about questioning the validity of these numbers? They’ll be revised at some point anyways, but that’s normal. I do think the jobs numbers don’t track with what I’ve seen in my profession (not in HR, but I’m involved with determining positions to be posted. We aren’t in a full on hiring freeze at the large organization I work for, but just this past week we were told any new postings will need evidence of justification and approval from the highest level which is not SOP), but that is anecdotal so not putting much stock in that.

TechnicalSkunk

My company uses Insperity and I fucking hate them. We transitioned mid pandemic and they MADE us move our money from Equitable to their shit 401k or else you couldn't sign up for their 401k or employer matching. I was down 42% at the time because of the pandemic so I literally had to take a massive loss because of them. On top of that, they only offer target date funds and like 4 other options to invest in. That's not even getting into all this self service bullshit we gotta do. I have to approve my own hours, log my own hours, and process all my own paperwork. It puts all the work on us and makes payroll and HR glorified so nothing's.

Max out all tax-advantaged spaces (401k, HSA, Roth IRA, etc...) Park any surplus cash in HYSA or money market accounts (Fidelity and Vanguard have competitive options). Once you're unemployed, you can consider backdoor Roth contributions to take advantage of lower income. In regards to searching for your next role, applications won't be enough, you almost certainly will need a warm connection within any organization to get past the initial automated application tracking system and HR screening. Take the six month lead to reconnect with all former colleagues who've moved on, start attending in-person networking events and conferences, use LinkedIn to identify contacts at target firms and request a pre-interview to inform your application.

AI is already transforming HR by handling repetitive tasks and improving recruitment, onboarding, and employee engagement. In the future, it will take on even more complex roles, helping HR focus on strategic work while enhancing efficiency and decision-making. It’s not about replacing humans but empowering them to do better work.

It’ll likely recover decently and has a good upside but margin is a risk if it doesn’t recover quick enough…and I don’t think HR managers are pounding at the door to bring them in, hence the short term forward guidance is weak.

Unicoronary

Sometimes-consultant (analysis, due diligence for M&As alongside the lawyers I work with), and operations. Private, and work mostly with growing small and regional.  There’s also the layer of businesses being pathologically risk-averse once they reach a certain size, and especially with (finally) updating their infrastructure - they tend to not want the disruption and up-front cost, even when they’re already leaking money.  A slow bleed beats surgery, for most decision making at that level.  There’s also a lot of bizarre focus on scaling-to-scale, without the infrastructure, HR, or processes to support it, and it inevitably crashes and burns; and they call in a consulting company.  Or their management and SOP sucks, and they’ve created a turnover death spiral - because everybody in charge’s prime selling point was surviving the death spiral long enougn to get promoted - and not much else.  Bless the people who do it full time, but if the job taught me anything - the business world is decidedly not a meritocracy.

It's really rough that consulting includes so many shitstain like those. I'm a consultant too, doing frontend software for people, so widely different area (less money too) but still "consulting". In my company if my boss finds me trying to fuck over a client by overcharging for things or under delivering I'll get canned fast. We're pushed to propose actual win win situations where both the client and us get things out of it. When I talk to other people from other consulting firm I feel like no one does this, and it pains me so hard. I really like my job and the people I work with, everyone just wants to do good and all it's great. HR even have a "no counts" policy where anyone with even a hint of douhebagery won't even see the 2nd interview regardless of pedigree and talent. Makes recruiting hard but day to day a lot better. But still, I'm a "consultant". I've had so many people tell me "yeah right" or shit like that when I explain that no, I don't just lie to client and fake expertise or something. I'm privileged though to have a nice job, but damn this side of it can be exhausting.

[Scene: Internal McKinsey Partner Debrief: Global Strategy Hub, London. Whiteboards everywhere, the smell of espresso in the air, the faint sound of someone optimising a cost curve in the next room.] Senior Partner (James Hargreaves, Oxford PPE, RP accent, high energy): Right. Let’s clear the air. Everyone’s seen that tweet, and yes, it looks like we got paid to do and undo the same thing twice. But that’s a cartoon version of what really happened. What we actually did were three strategic engagements, each responding to different leadership goals, market conditions, and organisational realities. It wasn’t chaos: it was complexity, managed. 2022 Engagement: Warner Bros. and Discovery Merger The initial mandate was classic post-merger advisory. We assessed synergy potential, designed the integration roadmap, and provided leadership coaching for the blended executive team. We applied the Three Horizons Framework to structure transformation ambition across short-term cost synergy capture, medium-term platform consolidation, and long-term ecosystem expansion. We ran full-stack due diligence: financial, operational, cultural. We deployed McKinsey’s 7S Framework to align structure, systems, staff, skills, style, strategy, and shared values across the two legacy organisations. We built detailed integration blueprints, content supply chain maps, and talent retention protocols. The $55 million reflected a 14-month engagement, dozens of teams, and global scope. That work underwrote an estimated $4.2 billion in synergy value. Junior Partner (Priya Menon, LBS MBA): Quick question, James. On the cultural side, weren’t there already signs that HBO and Discovery had very different creative philosophies? Wasn’t that flagged as a potential fault line in the 7S diagnostic? James: Good memory. Yes, there was significant divergence between HBO’s prestige-first model and Discovery’s fast-turnaround, volume-content DNA. That’s why our recommendation was never a full editorial fusion. We proposed a federated creative structure: shared backend tech and analytics, but decentralised content strategy. We also ran our Cultural Due Diligence module: interviews, sentiment heatmaps, organisational alignment scores — and modelled where integration would cause friction versus flow. 2022–2025: The Streaming Naming Saga The name changes? Not random. The rebrand from HBO Max to Max was backed by psychographic segmentation and A/B testing across seven consumer archetypes. The decision was a bet on expanding total addressable market by de-emphasising the perceived elitism of “HBO” and absorbing Discovery’s broader content footprint. It didn’t land as expected. Brand equity dropped, especially among core HBO loyalists. Our Brand Equity Tracker flagged a consistent dip in NPS across high-value cohorts. So in 2024, we re-ran the brand architecture diagnostics and advised a pivot back to HBO Max. This time with revised positioning and clearer tiering strategy. That $37 million wasn’t just logos and decks: it was ethnographic studies, design systems, customer journey simulation, and a full-stack go-to-market reset. Priya: Fair. But in hindsight, should we have pushed harder against dropping the HBO name to begin with? The qualitative feedback was already leaning negative. James: We gave them both paths, backed by data. The leadership team wanted to take a bold swing. Our role wasn’t to veto: it was to derisk. It didn’t fully land, but they learned faster, failed cheaper, and had a reversion strategy ready. In that sense, the process worked. We’ve since updated our Brand Resilience Index to better quantify loyalty elasticity in legacy brand transitions. 2025: Strategic Separation By 2025, it was clear the integration wasn’t hitting its targets. The company had bloated cost structures, diluted creative identity, and cultural misfit. We were brought in to run a full de-merger analysis. This wasn’t a breakup for the sake of it: it was a value unlock. We used our Reverse Synergy Mapping tool to assess which operations were actually delivering on their integration promises and which were dragging performance. We built disaggregation blueprints, transition service agreements, and a governance reset plan. We also mapped brand-level equity metrics to justify the need to re-establish independent consumer identities. The $63 million was a six-month sprint, global in scope, touching legal, finance, IT, HR, creative, and regulatory. It set up both entities to outperform separately. Priya: And what do we say to people who think we profited from creating the mess we then got paid to clean up? James: We didn’t create the mess. We managed the risk. These are massive, publicly traded entities trying to stay competitive in a brutally fragmented media landscape. Our role was to help them move with clarity. We gave them decision frameworks, predictive models, transition playbooks. If you think that’s just spin, then you’re missing the reality of modern business. Things shift. Data evolves. Consumers surprise you. Executives need tools not hindsight. We gave them tools Priya. Tools

> Those guys are smart, buy I don’t see any reason they could bring any management value. Value comes from deep and specialized subfield expertise, something so rare your competitors can’t have. The problem is management also often lacks that specialized subfield expertise. Management can easily understand "if we merge with that company we can capture their sales then layoff any overlapping job descriptions". We don't need two HR departments is easy to grasp for C-Suite types who don't want to do any deep dive. The consultants want to target big ticket line items in the budget because that is how they justify their big ticket cost. If they can point to 10 million in budget line items they advocate cutting then its easy to justify their 1 million dollar price tag. Sure it would be better to get some subject matter experts and have then really dig into your technical solution and propose changes to workflows, processes, and tooling to allow for increased efficiency. But that is more time consuming, more expensive, and more difficult to explain and implement

Yes, this. Ask HR if they can direct your HSA payments to Fidelity or a firm you prefer. One company allowed me to do this and another didn't. The company that allowed it used Voya, and Voya closed my account after I transferred the whole balance to Fidelity - company said my HSA payments were coming back and that's when I realized the account had been closed and was able to get them to deposit directly into Fidelity. Fidelity is great because you don't need to keep any cash balance - can invest every dollar from the first dollar. And no limits on what you can invest in. There are some other firms like that but you'd have to research to find out which they are.

Usually they will use a 3rd party company that lets you choose different ETF's / Mutual funds to invest in. Go ask HR about that. If the company is just using the 401k as a glorified savings account, AND they stopped matching contributions, then they're screwing you over. You'd have better luck not investing in the 401k, and instead investing in your own IRA account that you have complete control over.

mjhay23

Wow, that’s incredibly frustrating — and unfortunately not uncommon. Employers sometimes misconfigure their benefits systems or rely on third-party platforms that aren’t flexible or compliant with the latest IRS rules. If the $500 "employer" contribution isn’t guaranteed and you're capped at $3,800 regardless, that’s effectively **denying you the ability to max out your HSA**. And yes, that could be worth a DOL complaint if it’s limiting your legal tax-advantaged contributions. This is one of the reasons I’m so bullish on solutions like **WhiteRock**. In a world where finance, compliance, and benefits are increasingly automated, *transparency and programmability* should be standard — not some black box with endless support tickets. Imagine your HSA settings being on-chain, rules encoded in smart contracts, and no hidden catches or opaque workflows. But until we get there — I’d document everything, follow up in writing, and consider escalating through your HR or legal team. You *should* be able to make up the difference through payroll deductions or direct HSA deposits to hit the IRS max. Good luck — and this is exactly the kind of thing that shows how legacy systems are overdue for a serious upgrade.

My nephew does this. I always tell him look for a good reason for a stock to go up and then buy a Leap. If you’re not doing Leaps then you should be doing call spreads to protect the downside. For me it’s all about base hits and not home runs. You can clock out at 50% upside or downside and play again later. I don’t know you so I can’t give you advice but if I did I would say become a base hitter with .330 instead of an October slugger with a. .180 and 24 HR’s to use a baseball analogy.

Im a payroll admin for a dealership and I deal with HSA contribution limits often. If the employer does not contribute the $500 or any amount towards your HSA, you have 2 options that you do to max out your HSA. 1. Contribute the $500 yourself. You wont get the SS and Medicare tax break but you get the income tax break when you file taxes. 2. Towards the end of the year, talk to HR or payroll dept and ask to have an extra $500 manual HSA deduction on one of your final paychecks for the year. This way you still get the full tax break and max out the HSA.

Back when I worked for a large corporation, I actually was able to email the HR payroll handler for the company about this kind of question. My questions were mroe specific to end of year contributions that showed up in my 401k balance multiple days after jan 1, but still counted for the previous tax year correctly. The contribution is considered made on the pay date, even if it takes a little longer to reach the brokerage, and there was a small window, 1 or 2 weeks they had in the new year to level up contributions. In that case they also ensured their employer match percentages were correct for the year's totals. When later self-employed using an S-Corp, I ran my own payroll with myself as my business's only "employee". I used a solo 401k, and my employee side deducted $X per payroll for 401k pre-tax deduction. It was all calculated my the payroll provider. However, it was still on me as the business side to make sure the money reached the brokerage account. I generally did it ASAP, but sometimes the $$ sat in the business checking a while before it made it there. At the end of the year, I also had to ensure the reported payroll amount matched the total amounts sent, to the $0.01.

> When automatic 401K payroll deductions are taken, where exactly does that go and when it gets there, Depends, but basically the 401k platform send a memo to HR, HR sends a memo to payroll. Then the money is sent in the inverse order. > are they obliged to put it into the market within a specified amount of time? The latest the law allows is the 15th day of the following month, but that’s not the standard a company should follow. In reality it’s something like “as soon as administratively possible” which of course is not super specific. > I ask because my assumption would be that if the investment firms receive these huge lump sums on paydays around the country, one would expect a bump in stocks and indexes on those days with them buying such huge quantities if they have a small window of time to put it into the market. This is in theory possible, but in practice impossible. Theres different pay frequency for one, and even for the same pay frequency there’s basically a one in five chance of what day it falls on: it’s not like every firm hits on Friday, each company works at a different pace. > However, if they have a fiduciary responsibility to the customer/client, do they have an obligation to wait until, in their judgement, purchasing would be prudent? No. Not even close. They have a fiduciary obligation to put it in as soon as administratively feasible. They have no fiduciary obligation to try to guess what day the market will be down.

I'm sweating for everyone, everywhere. I was doing some browsing of r/Jobs because I'm planning to start job hunting for a swap sometime soon, and it seems like it's rough out there. A mix of automation, leaning up operations, fake postings, and high competition means this job market is, quite frankly, a *nightmare*. (Especially in my personal context, as my city is quite bad.) \[And I'm not even in CompSci!\] I'm not delusional. I know I, nor anyone, was ever *guaranteed* a job out of university, or in general... But everyone I know in computer science (quite a few, as my partner is majoring in it) is having a hard time finding internships/co-ops via their school. It's gone from "you *can* get a co-op, especially if you're exceptional" to "if you're exceptional *maybe* you'll get a co-op." Not saying they should be granted jobs from on high, but when I was in highschool the messaging was "STEM STEM STEM, doing computer science will guarantee you a job and that you'll die rich." Now? I hear horror stories. And I expect things to only get worse for every field. Admin, copywriting, HR, finance, etc. So long as there is an incentive to increase margins by cutting down on work force, the AI adoption will continue. Not *soon*, I expect it'll take some time... But I think it's become very clear to me that any career I, or anyone in my age range embarks upon, will look *extremely* different from those of our parents.

I would look at all your options (your’s plus your wife’s) as a “team approach” to retirement. That said, your wife’s 401k has room for more contributions (at least to the match). As for the pension, are you a local/state/federal gov worker? If so, those rules are available from your HR department.

This Boeing shit hits home for me in a major way. I worked as a sales manager for an airfoil manufacturing plant and the leap program was a huge part of our business (over 1/3). Q1 of 25, GE/Avio let us know that they were going to be pushing out engines in Q2/Q3 to the tune of $XX mil per quarter for us. The sales team gets put under extreme pressure, find that money or people will be let go. We scramble for weeks, offering capacity and discounts for all of our customers. I take the wife and kids to Disney for a week. 3 days in my coworker calls freaking out. Engineers, QEs, accountants, and people in admin roles on the floor have been let go. I'm devastated but jokingly say (well at least they can't touch us, there's only 3 sales people. My first day back I'm making my rounds for 2 hours trying to figure out who is taking the responsibilities of the people who were let go, when the HR manager catches me in the hall. "Hey can I talk to you for a minute". I was laid off. 2 kids and a pregnant wife at home. In 14 days I lose my insurance. I get walked into my office to collect my stuff. My coworker walks in as I'm taking pictures of my kids off the wall. She freezes and immediately starts tearing up while I talk her through all of the ongoing projects I have with all of my customers. Give her a big hug, tell her to call if she has questions, and get walked out the front door. Sit in my car for 30 minutes in silence not knowing what to do. I worked so hard to let my wife stay home with the kids, now here I am making them breakfast while she's at work.

You're doing good, you just need to organize your accounts and start maxing out your various contributions. We all were where you are now at some point. Good news is that it's an easy problem to solve. As for missing out with Roth, remember you can have a work 401k as well as a personal retirement account and you can contribute to both. Work with your HR person to figure out what contributions make then most sense.

(Note: The acting DHS Secretary terminated "all current memberships on advisory committees within DHS".) >Dept. of Homeland Security: Terminate CISA's counter-mis/disinformation efforts. (Note: CISA has frozen all of its election security work; many of CISA's misinformation team were put on leave) >Dept. of Justice: Prohibit the U.S. government from combating the spread of misinformation and disinformation. *trump and his supporters are basically doing George Orwell's 1984 "Ministry of Truth Department" in real life >In George Orwell's 1984, the Ministry of Truth (also known as Minitrue) is a central, ironically named department responsible for propaganda, historical revision, and the control of information in the dystopian society of Oceania. Its primary function is to manipulate the truth to support the Party's ideology and maintain its control over the population.

PricewaterhouseCoopers is rolling out a major reorganization of its U.S. advisory division as it responds to growing demand for tailored consulting services and recovers from recent rounds of layoffs, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday. Effective July 1, PwC will double the number of advisory “platforms” it operates in the United States, expanding from four to eight in order to deliver more specialized, industry-focused offerings. The restructuring also involves embedding managed services, where PwC oversees ongoing operations like IT or HR for clients, within each advisory group, moving away from treating it as a standalone unit.

Where I work we've been experimenting with edging the entire work day to improve focus and classical associate our work with pleasure. We don't wear clothes anymore, just jerk it at all times 9-5. Thankfully we don't hire women where I work, so no reports to HR either. We also make AI do all our work, which I can teach you how to do if you buy my program. We just Jerk off all day, and some times jerk each other off in team building exercises. We are the future of finance.

You should have received verification from Amazon that you even received the stock and if so where it is. If you get no response from Amazon HR contact Morgan Stanley, they should have a record of it if it exists. Often the stock is vested meaning you have to work there a certain period of time before you are "vested" and have access to it. It sounds like you were not there long enough to receive stock.

show him your pecker, then report him to HR for sexual harassment because he looked.

I have been in HR for too many years in high level roles. Second quarter of 2022 was when this all began meaning fake job posts. It wasn’t until last year that the media felt comfortable pooping on Biden after what anyone could see with eyes. The guy was a shell of a person. I say all of this to say, both parties hate us. The real rate of unemployment is 15% or higher. If you could see the applicants we get for entry to mid career roles it’s sad. If you have a job, be thankful.

So you are saying HR will get better now? No more Karen's working in HR. WOW!

Coming to boil here: because the market has been addicted to High Vol, because the media has completely stripped valuations out of the equation in favor of political commentary and that now includes J Powell, because if these talks were going to be a HR for America, trump would be there, because the bond market is giving Powell ammo to do nothing and feel safe from too much criticism of being biased, because one of the 2 parties is promoting resistance of American progress and because there are just soooo many stupid scored people

Pay off all credit card debt first. Embrace the concept of paying your cc bill in full at the end of each month. Who cares about making 5% investment growth when you’re paying 20% interest. Make sure you have 6 - 12 months of cash available in savings in case crap hits the fan, you lose a job, emergency comes up, etc. Once you have your rainy day account set up, and you’re not bleeding money to the cc companies, open an account at a brokerage like Fidelity Create a retirement account and an investment account. If you make less than 130k per year (ballpark) your first retirement account will be a Roth. If you make over 130k, a regular retirement account. You can put up to 6k a year into your personal retirement account. Until you get a job that offers a 401k, this is your retirement nest egg. Even after you get a 401k, you can still add up to 6k a year into it. What money you invest there grows tax free. Stick to investing in index funds like VOO or their equivalents. Fight the urge to buy individual stocks - embrace the fact that you are a noob who will be quickly parted of his money if he gets too cute. Let the market work for you. Once you get a 401k, work with HR to figure out how to max yourself out. Choose target date retirement funds if offered or index fund equivalents if not. Once you’ve taken advantage of all the tax free options available to you - personal and 401k - and you’re now making good bucks that exceed what the IRS allows you to invest without paying taxes on, then use the investment account you set up to take in the extra cash.

Wtf are you talking about lmao? You can pay a worker in England to assemble a car for 25000 USD a year. In USA you have hard time convincing illegal immigrant to pick apples at that rate. Have you ever heard of the great American company called Google? Use their search engine to look this stuff up. Sorry, but the companies are not running a charity. USA is a country where you sell stuff, but don't make stuff. In the US there's already too many useless buttfaces making 100k a year being some "HR coordinator" who drinks coffee and jerks it to porn in some office. In Europe doctors don't make that much, it's like some senior level managenent or banker salary.

1. Read hedge fund letters. Make notes on why they invested in said stocks. Does it make sense? Are you interested? 2. Pay attention to what tech or HR initiatives your employer is embarking on. What companies are they using or letting go of. 3. Follow industries that you are interested in. 4. What companies are your friends working for? Are they happy or bad mouthing the company? What I initiatives are there embarking on? You'll eventually get a follow list where after some in depth research You'll make an investment.

The poor earnings consistency is a succinct point and cuts deep. They screwed up on their pricing and the analysts have never forgiven them. I believe the expression "there is no greater zealot than a convert" applies and that won't happen again. I don't see how Medicaid changes effect them given they are not in that market. Maybe there are secondary ripples from those changes I've not considered. I'm honestly not concerned about the ACA. It's not going anywhere as rolling that back would guarantee The Republicans lose the senate and the house in 2026. Just look at the ACA enrollees by state and cross reference that to the majorities thel incumbent senators will be defending in 2026, check North Carolina, Texas, Florida and Ohio. The fact that these states are so heavy ACA, so dependent on the enhanced subsidies and so critical to keeping the senate make me quietly confident we will see a bill rushed through at least temporarily extending subsidies after the reconciliation work is completed in the BBB. Balance sheet is strong however not as strong as Finwits are making out as they just focusing on the big cash numbers without understanding why. Anyone considering a position would do well to ignore that chatter in their due diligence and thought process. Questions that need to be asked and answered are Q. Why aren't they guiding for 2026 revenue and margins? A. Uncertainty around enhanced subsidies, how ICHRA will take off in year 1 Q. Then given the above why are the guiding $2.25 EPS for 2027 and 5% margins? A. Because they know their trajectory and they know they're only using ACA as a stepping stone in their larger plan to dominate the Individual Market and maybe for their AI stack to start becoming the must have interface for administering ICHRA. Q. But.. but.. but.. Trump..Obamacare. cuts A. It's not happening, read the relevant sections in the BBB. Ignore the loaded language from people trying to drive political fear. They might not extend the enhanced subsidies but that could be political suicide itself, aside from trying to stop fraudulent applicants they are however not touching the meat and bones of ACA plans Q. Why do you keep saying ICHRA, what it is? A. Do some research, ask your friends. Then ask yourself do you want to control your healthcare or do you want your employer to pick it for you? Maybe think about your 401k and if you like that control or if you'd prefer your HR team to be guiding your pension investment. I really want to hear more data from the ground as to how this as an option will land with people in different age groups and circumstances. My own admittedly limited research has shown it comes as a shock but people love the idea after it is explained properly to them. Some want it, some decline but the idea is they have a choice of personal plan or group plan now and there are incentives to get employers on board. There is even more nuance in this bill like what appears to be having a HSA and using excess tax advantaged funds for deductibles, dental plans, gym memberships but I'm not happy enough with my own understanding and due diligence here to say that's absolutely the case or not. There are some states this doesn't work in like New York, New Jersey and I believe Vermont as they don't allow for individual pricing to vary even taking into account the age of the applicant but the rest of the states allow it. The individual market will fail in these states until those rules are relaxed. I am clearly extremely bullish on this stock and it's taking every ounce of self control not to YOLO and get in heavy now. I need structure, break out, testing, gap fills and support and only at that point I'm going to throw the kitchen sink and maybe my first born at this stock

Yeah, that was stupid as fuck. AI's perfectly suited to take over mental work tasks. HR, data analysts, coders, paralegal, management? AI can do most of those better than 90% of the field now. Digging fenceposts or working on a broken car? AI won't be able to do jack shit with those until robotics catches up, and due to the unpredictable nature of physical labor that requires on-the-fly innovation, probably won't ever be able to completely take over those fields.

I work with a lady in my HR department. We had about 100 employees and I explained to her when she started, she should just do the 401k at 6 or 7%, it would be good one day. Anyways, now 6 years later she had nice 30k or so there. At our company we are the only 2 who contribute. Work In Healthcare.

technotrader

At orientation 25 years ago, listening to that HR person who told me to "just put an X on that". [x] Contribute to company 401k I was new to the country and didn't even know what a 401k was. Sits at 700k now.
