“After taking the time to get to know my goals and personality, Facet matched me with an advisor… Not only is [my CFP®] willing to discuss my own finances, she takes the time to answer any questions I have about the world of finance more generally, and I come out of each meeting having learned something new. I highly recommend Facet Wealth to anyone looking for financial advice.”

“The fee structure is probably the other biggest thing that sent me to Facet and it’s made me very happy with Facet. It puts us at an equal footing with anybody else. It’s not about how much money I have managed by Facet. It’s about us as a client…and as we grow our finances, the attention we get is not gonna change. We’re still a client paying for our Facet services with a fee structure that supports us as just a couple, not as a set of assets.”

Frequently asked questions.
What is career planning?
Career planning maps out your professional path in a way that works for your life, values, and money goals. While traditional career planning services focus on climbing the corporate ladder, modern approaches like Facet look at your whole life — from work-life balance to building wealth.
Career planning considers everything from your ideal work environment to your long-term financial needs, helping you make decisions that serve both your professional ambitions and personal priorities.

What are the benefits of career planning?
A smart career plan helps you land better opportunities, earn more, and find work you actually enjoy. Good planning helps you handle decisions about equity compensation, negotiate better packages, and grow professionally.
When you take time to plan your career moves, you’re better equipped to recognize and seize opportunities that others might miss.
Facet’s investment philosophy focuses on career choices that make you both happy and financially secure. Plus, having a solid career plan gives you the confidence to make bold moves when the right opportunities come along.
What should I consider before making a career change?
A career change isn’t something you should do on a whim. You’ll want to find a company culture and work environment that feels right for you while thinking through any new skills you’ll need to develop along the way.
Consider how your benefits and pay package might change, and make sure the move fits your personal and professional goals. Research industry trends and talk to people already working in your target field.
Understanding the day-to-day reality of your new career path helps you make informed decisions about the transition.

How do career changes affect my retirement planning?
Switching careers can shake up your retirement planning. You’ll need to understand what happens to your retirement accounts at your current job and learn about the retirement benefits at your new workplace.
Consider how salary changes might affect when you can retire, and plan ways to keep your retirement savings on track during the switch. You should also factor in any potential gaps in retirement contributions during your transition period.
You might also need to adjust your investment strategy or increase your savings rate to stay on course. Thoughtful planning keeps your career moves working together with your financial roadmap. Don’t forget to consider ways to catch up if your career change temporarily impacts your retirement savings.
What should I look for in an employer benefits package?
Benefits advisors say there’s more to consider than just health insurance and 401(k) matching. Employers are getting creative with their packages. Look for perks like professional development funds, mental health resources, and flexible work options.
Many companies now offer help with student loans, company equity, and comprehensive wellness programs.
Pay attention to details like vesting schedules, coverage waiting periods, and whether benefits extend to family members.
Some employers offer unique perks like sabbaticals, volunteer time off, or education reimbursement. Take time to understand how each benefit fits into your overall compensation picture. Looking at your whole compensation package helps you make smarter career moves.
How do I align my career goals with my financial goals?
Your career choices and financial goals go hand in hand. You’ll want to figure out what salary you need for your lifestyle and explore which career paths could earn you more over time. Focus on finding jobs with good benefits and room to grow while keeping your skills fresh and marketable.
Having enough savings gives you the freedom to make career moves when you want. Consider how each career step affects your short-term finances and long-term wealth building potential.
Think about opportunities for bonuses, commissions, or equity that could boost your earnings beyond your base salary.
Your career path can change as your goals do. A solid plan helps you make choices that work for both your professional growth and your bank account.
