A 401(k) is an employer-sponsored retirement plan that allows employees to save and invest a portion of their wages to grow tax-free until withdrawal. Employees elect a percentage of their paycheck to contribute to the 401(k) which reduces their taxable income. Employers often match a percentage of employee contributions. Employees choose how the money is invested and it grows over time through investment returns and continued contributions. Money can be withdrawn at retirement, upon leaving an employer, or in special hardship situations with potential penalties. Southern Company offers an Employee Savings Plan 401(k) that matches 85% of the first 6% of employee contributions.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
