Serious responses only please. Thank you.

Is anyone using MorningStar for 401(k)? If so, how much has been your YTD gains this year? My YTD is 10.61% for self managed with diversification in Large, Small, International and RTX.

I'm wondering if there is anything available about quantum computers that interface with the human mind. Or some kind of material that does. I feel like I'm going crazy asking this but w.e I think I'm picking up a computer or something when I tap in to meditate.. in face I can't even do it the same anymore this thing jus snagging my attention and before I know it I'm having the same kinda experience same feeling same similar events finger tapping fluid back and forth talks..

To no-one's surprise, Calio licked the boot. But be sure to contribute to the PAC.

I have seen the salary survey. I believe there are only a couple m2 salaries listed. What do the m2s make? I do not want to give away too much of my own personal info because there are a lot of people at my current location that frequent this app that will be able to piece together my time to figure out who I am.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I wanted to put IRS maximum contribution ($24,500). I have the standard Alight roth 401k plan. How do you set it so that it stops contributing after it hits the maximum? For example, if 20% gives $24,000 contribution and 21% gives $25,000, do you just update the % in the middle of the year to be as close as $24,500?

Coming up on 2 years with RTX and am potentially moving into a team lead position, a 5 performer to a 6 manager. According to the salary survey, I'm in the middle of my band for a 5. What kind of an increase is realistic? I'm not expecting much competition for the role. All my previous experience was with the government in a niche field.

Hi all, considering transferring to Puerto Rico. Where do people live out there? What are the schools like? Do you flee during hurricane season? Not trying to be funny. Just wanted to know.

What kind of salary percentage change should I be looking for?

The answer is 0%

What has better potential for growth and higher salary, Procurement Manager or Subcontract Manager? Both require 8yr of experience.

In summary, I know there's a team running around using ARGUS as a system. I know that "system" existed before we got the ever so capable Copilot. With that, I'd assume ARGUS runs off of SOME sort of open source system.

How can I get an open source system authorized to be used?

Plenty of small projects, no state secret level work, there's always the IP consideration, but many of those models have the ability to work offline.

Who do I have to harass? What process do I use?

Was hoping the new quarter would allow us to withdraw credit but does not seem like it. Real sweet to have our money held away from us.

I have been with collins total of 2 years (1 year as an intern and 1 year as a full time P1) my performance is great and always get feedback from managers and peers. I have been asking for P2 because I am already doing the work for it even more. There is also a p2 opening in a different team that I could apply for it but I really like my team and learning opportunity. What do you recommend doing wait a little but or just apply for p2?

Thanks for the input everybody!

Anybody currently in a reserve component of the military and working at Pratt?

How does it work out for longer drill periods and the annual training?

Thinking about joining the reserve and wanted to see how people manage it. I would end up doing 3 day drills every month missing a day of work.

I received an email yesterday from Workday saying that someone would be contacting me to schedule a final interview and the email said "A member of our hiring team will be contacting you in the next few business days to schedule time to speak with you." About how long does it take to hear back? Also wanted to ask if anyone has been able to negotiate days of week in office for an onsite role and how they did it. I know someone who works in this department that says they are fully remote but they try to go into the office two days a week. However, the role says "onsite" so I'm wondering if there is any room to negotiate that and tips on how to get more flexibility since the role requires frequent international travel and extended working hours to accommodate the customer in another time zone. I haven't worked in an office for over 6 years but was recently impacted by Collins ISP 6/26 and with the state of the current job market I think I should take this opportunity to get back into the company at P&W Thoughts and advice?

Hi Everyone,

Could someone please give me a run down on what a day in a life of a RF Electrical Engineer II at Raytheon? According the job description, this role will be joining the RF/Microwave Engineering Team.

I recently interviewed for a RF Electrical Engineer II position located at Tewksbury, MA and during the interview, I asked my interviewer, a senior engineering manager, what a day in a life would be like in this role. His response was relatively vague, he responded with it depends on the team and project. When I asked for some more specifics, I got more or less the same answer.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Reddit

I took my first 401K loan out to help with house renovations. It got approved June 24th and it said 1-2 business days for direct deposit. I already had my bank account setup so they had approval for deposit.

It is now 6/30 and I still have not received the funds. Does it usually take this long?

I chatted with someone an Alight and they said it’s actually 3 - 5 business days and I should have it sometime this week. It’s been 6 business days. Should I call my bank or Alight?

Any input or past experiences appreciated!
