When will we be getting information about COBRA? I called COBRA and they said we should get information beyond what we have received in order to sign up. It’s 1/11. We’ll need it for February.

I got 2 paychecks on 1-5: one is a normal check for 2 weeks ending 12-31 and I can see that contribution (and Schwab’s match, plus the $250 annual) posted to my 401k. However, I also got a separate check on 1-5 for the last week (thru 1-5) and unpaid... — read more

I was impacted in October. Finding the job market very tight. 100+ applications, 2 interviews… no offers. Are the rest of you having any better luck?

These top workplace designations seem rigged. If Schwab wins again it is certainly something they pay for to win like a participation trophy. What a scam

I transferred all of my assets (minus my 401K) out of Schwab today. Man, that felt good. So long Schwab and thanks for kicking me to the curb. I'm far better off without you than the reverse!

Just curious, who is leaving after the March bonus and why? What are your plans for after you resign? Personally I'm considering it, likely going to just take some time off, and also return to school to finish my degree.

What do we need to do with options that were awarded to us as prior key contributor awards before the company went all RSU? I think I read that they should be exercised within 3 months of termination. Can anyone with more knowledge help me... — read more
