Fallom posted:I read that USAA has completely different support teams depending on your region and what type of customer they see you as, in addition to the different product-based teams If they do it like other companies, this is absolutely the case. I have a relative that works for another insurance company as a manager and they split their stuff up by states - he had Wyoming and Alaska as his starting portfolio (smallest states by population). Lots of fun stories about dealing with individual states' insurance regulators.

the yellow dart posted:https://www.airforcemag.com/goldfein-pandemic-may-help-retention-pilot-shortage/ Doesn't take a predictive model for pilots to see the airline industry tank and go, oh well, guess it's time to stay in. I suspect any retention/recruiting problems the entire military has will not be a problem for the next several years at least. Also, looks like they're using Zoom there, heh.

Godholio posted:Watch the AF change the retention bonus so it's all or nothing on the 9 year option. Right now there's a scale. They really have nothing to lose so why not turn up the suck?

LtCol J. Krusinski posted:Ahhhh, gotcha. We have too many acronyms, it’s hard to remember them all. Hah, I got out as a captain, I didn't command anything. (It'll be 10 years in October!) That said Godholio is right on the money. I almost don't quite understand the question. I suppose as a new 17-whatever you're sitting around doing jack squat until you go to school. Is there someone local you can ask? Or are because you're ANG it's some weird situation where you're sitting at home? Like Godholio said those things are usually just copied from previous people doing the same thing. Someone who is in charge of you in some way should have that stuff readily at hand. (I realize usual USAF bureaucratic nonsense may mean this doesn't exist for you) That said, most everyone I know has punched out at this point, but I still work for CYBERCOM and various USAF folks so if you have any q's about cyber ops I can probably answer some things.

Arc Light posted:When you're good at your job, you get to do other people's jobs, too. So loving true Knives Amilli posted:so to answer your question: the 17 tech school (UCT) for ANG and Reserves, changed from a PCS to a TDY even though its actually a *PCS* (Over 20 weeks but under 181 days of training). Reason being is that the Reserve side of Cyber had to up the potential money made during training (via per diem and home of record BAH) to appeal to private sector IT professionals looking to join the military.  indeed. Boning over the Total Force as usual I see, this kind of stuff is the reason I didn't go Reserves/ANG when I got out. What you said about private industry sure is true though, I wonder how we keep any semblance of a cyber force together given how much being active duty sucks and the difference in pay/benefits compared to the outside.

It's also a factor of your company's contract and the associated DD254 which describes what level of classification the work will be under. Your contract comes with a certain number of SCI billets and you'll be assigned to one, and the classification of the work you do must be specified (and justified) on the DD254. If the DD254 is 2-pack you can't get a 4-pack read-in, for instance.
