Hi, I have noticed that some companies in my hometown keep posting the same job positions yearly. Does that mean I should stay away from them? Do they fire new employees later, or do new employees decide that the new job is toxic and leave?

I started a new job and insurance won't kick in for 2 months. I'm paying for insurance through marketplace and it's very expensive. At my last job, insurance began on day 1. I thought that was the new norm - that we no longer have to wait so long. Is this not the case? Do I have…

How do you know when it's time to walk away? I left a toxic work situation last year and was offered two identical positions. The only difference was one paid $2k more and the other matched up to 10% for the 401K. I went with the second one and I've come to regret it. I was told…
