$300 won't cover the cost for a qualified advisor. Even if you'd get a tax professional to make the math for you for that money (the one I use charges $350 for a phone call, ymmv), getting a lawyer to go over the terms of the loan would be $1000 at minimum.

That's when you start an informal union with your colleagues, pool the $300 and get a real advice.

Better yet, start a formal union, and hold managment accountable for such sh*t.

i guess they probably doled it out as "file an expense report" stipend rather than cash or some voucher, that could lead to some awkward conversations w/ management...

Hey now, you can get somebody to do anything for $300 on Craigslist. You just need a fairly flexible definition of “qualified”.
