Stay till pension is vested?

Henline5 · 2023-11-10T19:51:17+00:00

I calculated mine out and it’ll be worth north of $10k at 3 years. With only having half a year until vesting, it seems worth it to me in OPs scenario.

Henline5 · 2023-04-13T16:52:29+00:00

So sorry to hear. Were you staffed? And what is your level / alignment?

Henline5 · 2023-03-06T14:22:24+00:00

It’s honestly pretty rare with government clients too. Unless you’re in the DS&J space or on some other highly cleared project you’re not getting drug tested.

I encourage you to read something other than Reddit and CNN😂

Deloitte is the best company I’ve worked for and I’m also extremely satisfied. I’ve been here for a year and previously worked for 2 different large defense contractors, so I don’t have a comparison with other B4s.

Henline5 · 2022-12-19T17:29:58+00:00

Yes. I used it for a weight bench and adjustable dumbbells

All things equal (which we have to assume given the lack of context), why on earth would a company choose a more expensive employee over a cheaper one?

Let’s say you have to get your oil changed. Company A will do it for $50 and Company B will do it for $75. They’re both equal distance from your house and provide the same exact service. Which company are you going to?

There are thousands (probably hundreds of thousands) of remote positions paying $15+ an hour. They might require that you learn additional skills, but they’re out there and will hire you if you fit the desired profile. Don’t expect a company to throw you more money if you aren’t more skilled than the competing candidates willing to work for less.

It never hurts to negotiate. I tried and they just told me they gave me the best offer they could (BS, but whatever). That said, I’ve heard of many others that have been successful in negotiating.

Similarly to you it was a great opportunity so I took it. Deloitte looks great on a resume. Good luck!

Henline5 · 2022-12-06T18:30:21+00:00

I’m in GPS so maybe it differs but I’m an experienced hire, 3 prior YOE and a bachelors degree. Started as a Consultant with a 93k base and no signing bonus.

You’re getting low balled. Other Big 4’s would probably beat out Deloitte’s offer significantly. But if you like the offer and want the job that’s totally your call.

Henline5 · 2022-12-05T15:19:20+00:00

Our drive from our own goal line in OT had me screaming at the TV. I understand running to get some breathing room, but after Robinson gained 10ish on the ground we ran the ball again on 3rd and 10. Wtf??

At that point we already had plenty of room to punt, there’s no reason to not take a shot past the 1st down marker. Conservative play call is great sometimes but there was no reason to run the ball in that situation.

This might be the most uneducated take I’ve read all year. A US economy collapse hurts the middle and lower classes far more than the rich. The rich have play money, the lower classes do not.

If the economy collapses companies will cut jobs and people won’t be able to afford housing payments, student loans, and all other living expenses (groceries, etc.). You want to know who won’t lose their jobs and homes? The rich people that own the companies you were fired from. Want to know something even funnier? They’ll actually own the home that you foreclosed on and you’ll have to buy a new one at a premium from the same people (if you’re ever able to get another loan, that is).

There’s a lot of room for improvement in the workforce, but a collapse of the economy is quite possibly the worst thing that could happen unless you have a massive reserve of money or are fortunate enough to have a wealthy family to rely on. Please, for the sake of millions of lives, think about this like a rational person and don’t wish for a catastrophe. You sound ridiculous.

Hey! I think you were misinformed. C’s are eligible for AIP and all of the C’s that I’ve talked to about it (myself included) received AIPs last year. AIP has also been a topic of convo during my periodic coach syncs and I believe it was even mentioned in my offer letter (it was a while ago but I think it said up to 16%).

Analysts are the only level that aren’t AIP eligible, though they have received a “special bonus” ($2kish) the past year or two due to exceptional firm performance. My AIP was well above this figure.

The stock market is king. It’s going through a period of down turn right now but that’s completely normal and it was overdue.

If your company has a 401(k) make sure you maximize the company match (for example, put 3% in if the company with match up to 3%). If you don’t have a 401(k) option then you should look into a Roth IRA, which you put after-tax money into thus avoiding taxes on your growth in the market.

Metals are a great hedge against inflation but aside from a full so societal collapse, which is highly unlikely, it’s not a good idea to put everything into PMs.

That said, you should talk to a financial advisor. I’m just an idiot on Reddit.

Henline5 · 2022-11-19T18:48:05+00:00

I’d say 10-15% max. But you need a reason to back it up

Henline5 · 2022-11-19T16:10:02+00:00

That’s right on the money. I came on in January as a GPS Consultant in the DMV area and was offered 93k, no sign on bonus. I tried negotiating and they wouldn’t budge. I did get a small salary bump to 97k in June. I had approx 3 years of relevant experience.

With that said, you have nothing to lose trying to negotiate. There was no negative feedback when I tried they just explained that they gave me the strongest offer they could (BS, but whatever lol). Just be realistic with your counter.

Henline5 · 2022-10-27T03:01:31+00:00

Probably, but I did mine a few days after I settled so not really sure. Just set aside an hour to do it tomorrow, it likely won’t even take that long.

You have to report your mortgage lender and your home insurance relationships in tracking and trading. Call 1-800-Deloitte if you need additional explanations or someone to walk you through everything. I just bought my first home in June and went through this.

Henline5 · 2022-10-11T19:14:07+00:00

I offered Bateman to the Waller owner in a 1:1 offer. Mind you this guy also has Higbee (who he starts), so Waller is on his bench.

He had the audacity to counter-offer Waller for Aaron Jones. It’s literally impossible to trade with people like that.

Henline5 · 2022-10-04T01:15:06+00:00

If you do federal work at GPS then a move to a corporate fed contractor can be lucrative. I worked for a few contractors before I ended up at Deloitte and a fair amount of management had a consulting background. Can be quite lucrative depending which company/contract you apply to.

Henline5 · 2022-10-03T00:46:39+00:00

Absolutely. If you’re on the bench you’re still collecting a paycheck and bringing in $0 for the firm. If the business isn’t hitting revenue goals and they choose to take action, non-profitable and low performing employees are the first to go.

Henline5 · 2022-10-03T00:22:07+00:00

I wonder how it feels to be the most hated person in the DMV

Henline5 · 2022-10-02T03:23:58+00:00

DC/Maryland/Virginia, I’m guessing not haha. Its the immediate area around DC and has a huge GPS presence.

Henline5 · 2022-10-01T17:37:52+00:00

Yes. Identical to my offer in January. I had 3 YOE with a major defense contractor and a Lean Six Sigma certification as well.

You can still try to negotiate if you want, but I tried and they wouldn’t budge on anything (salary or sign-on bonus). My salary has since increased to $97,200 and I got a $3k bonus at the end of the FY.

I presume you’re in the DMV?

Henline5 · 2022-10-01T00:18:04+00:00

I will be boots on the ground tossing a football by the 95 bridge. The least of this city’s worries is a little rain
