Happy to announce I’ve accepted a role as VP of Operations at TicketCity! After my first full week, I am really impressed with the team and systems that go into powering a 9-figure, 30%+ CAGR ecommerce marketplace. Technology, customer service, fraud– all done in-house. What is more impressive than the operation are the people on the team. TicketCity was founded in 1990 (a pre-Internet business) and many folks on the team have been with the company more than a decade.
Comparably has an interesting set of survey results on which benefits (excluding healthcare) are most important.
I was most interested in what I see as a change in work-life balance over time. Here’s what I saw, in general:
Importance of retirement (401k contribution) increases as we get older Need for flexibility peaks during the middle of our careers Vacation policy becomes less important as we get older If you think about the typical life pattern, these all seem to make sense.
That moment you start working on your personal computer after you quit your job and you keep trying to login with your old work password.
I’ve worked at Open Mortgage for 2,644 days. Today is my last.
The TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure rule implementation in 2015 had potential to be the iceberg to the Mortgage industry’s Titanic. TRID was the biggest regulation change in twenty years and those companies not ready for the new way of doing business risked sinking their ship.
