Pros

-38 days PTO -72 hours sick time -Bonuses available -For lifers, it is probably pretty great.

Cons
  • Big and old.
  • Your personal financial autonomy is nonexistent. You have zero ability to buy anything other than ETFs/index funds or crypto.
  • If you have accounts anywhere other than Fidelity, you must close them.
  • If you own rental properties, you must disclose them and obtain permission to sell them.
  • If you have a financial advisor, there's a good chance you will have to get rid of him or her.
  • Anyone living in your house must abide by these same awful mandates.
  • So woke and full of virtue signaling.
  • Giving one star on DEI because that stuff is ruinous and I don't agree with it.
Advice to Management

None. Glad I'm gone. Good riddance.
