And if you’re not sure how to allocate any newfound funds, it may be worthwhile to speak with a financial advisor. “It can be overwhelming to sort out corporate benefits, understand your compensation and plan for financial success,” Irick said. “My advice is to look to experts.” The top two people Irick suggested consulting for advice and guidance are the benefits/human resources partner at your company and a wealth advisor. “The benefits and HR partner can help you navigate the offerings specific to your company and your role. A wealth advisor can help you choose which options offered are best for you based on a holistic understanding of your current needs and your future goals.”
