Three habits for a happy, successful career

  1. Communicate well. 57% of employers rank it the #1 skill they want in a hire — and 18% of employees say poor communication cost them a promotion. Listen fully, write concisely, ask questions.

  2. Maximize your 401k. Get the full employer match first — an instant 50-100% return. Then aim for 15% of pay total. 2026 limit: $24,500 ($32,500 if 50+). Auto-escalate 1-2% a year, and send half of every raise to the 401k.

  3. Eat home cooked food mostly. People who cook 6+ nights a week eat healthier and spend ~$9/day on food vs $11 for those who rarely cook — about $1,000 a year saved for a family.

Boring, but the numbers work.


I found a better deal

I kept waiting for this place to recognize the work I was already doing, just to see two promotional opportunities pass me by. That was the push I needed to start applying elsewhere and after four (long) months I found a position that pays considerably more and gives me benefits I actually prefer. The many rejections over the past months were frustrating, but it paid off in the end and I'm glad I didn't take them as a reason to stop trying.


BTC & KLTC

Can anyone share any BTC or KLTC success stories? I presume we have above average ppl at the highest levels of management. We’ve been on this TC journey now for a while and should be able to judge whether or not we should double down or reset our global talent management strategy. Are there truly tangibly positive results?


Day 1 of 100

Today marks day one for me posting a critical issue / incident about bp.

DWH: Andy inglis required an announcement on a large oil discovery to continue the success story of bps deep exploration in GoA. As he often did he made a couple of calls ahead of the quarterly results to get that well done and announce success, result DWH


Seems like persistence paid off.

There are tons of people who want to see you fail. It makes them feel good about inactivity on their part and when you succeed, jealously sets in. Most posters here will apply their situation as a blanket across the regions and make the bold insistent claims that its impossible to find a job outside, well, not so much. Among all the noise here and all the hecklers, one buddy of mine is leaving at 30% more and another at 50% more. Yes, that’s right a whole 50% more.

Their secret, head down, research, search, apply, move on to another job board and don’t give up. 6+ months later, they are moving on. Don’t listen to the clowns on this board who’ll try to verbally beat you down and manipulate you into not even trying.


One more sleep until Monday morning!!!

Can't wait to get to work tomorrow. Such a fulfilling job where I feel valued. It is great knowing my work is part of the future plan and I am contributing to the overall success of VZ. I'm so excited that I won't be able to sleep tonight. Set the Foundation!!! Love your company!


Thank you Guru

You laid the foundation for Viasat's success over the past year. We may have tripped and fell a few times, but now we are up and running like Usain Bolt sprinting towards the gold medal. Viasat 3 Flight 2 is like a phoenix rising from the ashes. $100 per share is in sight, and maybe even $1000 per share is reachable. It's all possible due to your brilliant and visionary leadership. I raise my glass in honor of you.


Arvind Krishna. An Immigrant success story

From modest background, Arvind Krishna is the kind of immigrant success story people should actually talk about more. He came to the U.S., built his career through skill and discipline, and rose to become CEO of one of the most important technology companies in the world. No shortcuts, no noise—just execution. At a time when leadership gets questioned constantly, he’s focused on long-term strategy, AI innovation, and keeping IBM steady. That’s what real success looks like: earn it, build it, and lead with substance.


Breaking News: Franklin Templeton moves final phone skill back on...

Final date is 04/27/2026. Not all details have been published yet.

Great job to the FIS executive team, looking straight at you, VP Ian McCoy! Be sure to give notes to the Sales Team to sell this success to future clients! Let them know all of the steps that FIS took to achieve this result.

There are still legacy FT employees not hired back. All of that tenured talent wasted right down the drain.


Great Press Exposure

Lots more news articles and post views generated about this RIF than the total AI tour. Great marketeering.
Add 10k more evangelists to promote the company at their new employers and it’s a total success.
When do companies fail? Too much debt? Negative cash flow? Or when the customers don’t believe they will be here next year?


Great Q4 earnings report

Great job everyone! As a retired Macy's IT worker, it is great to see Tony Spring take the reins and show incredible sales results. Such a pleasure not to fear sales reporting.

As a team, you all deserve recognition. Yes, many changes- retail is ever changing, especially in the environment we are currently in.
Macy's did a great job navigating the change, great execution in planning as well.

Here's wishing you all a successful 2026,!


Credit where credit's due

Good job, marketing and whoever approved the latest commercial. People hate AI slop so much that making a CGI commercial while directly taking on Coca Cola is the easiest win we've had in a long while. It's been a while since I've seen so much positive chatter online about Pepsi. Good job, whoever was responsible for this.
