Pratt & Whitney Client Testimonials
"I had talked with a number of colleagues who were clients of AdviceOne regarding their practice and the feedback received was always consistent and positive. The fact that most AdviceOne clients worked for United Technologies Corporation (now RTX), was a plus as AdviceOne was very familiar with how our corporate 401(k) worked. - Jim Apicello, retired, IT, Pratt & Whitney |
“I made the decision to have my 401(k) managed by a professional investment firm and AdviceOne came highly recommended by several colleagues. Tim Miller, backed by a dedicated staff of professionals, has done an outstanding job and has treated myself and my wife with the greatest of professionalism. - Greg Bond, Military Engines, Pratt & Whitney |
“During a 40+ year career at Pratt & Whitney, my involvement afforded me the opportunity to observe multiple world class organizations. AdviceOne shares many characteristics common to these organizations. Two are robust processes designed to deliver results and state-of-the art technologies that allow easy tracking of key metrics. The third, and most important, is people. The staff at AdviceOne is professional, competent, and responsive. - John Zavodjancik, retired, Program Quality, Pratt & Whitney |

"One of the best decisions my wife and I have ever made was attending an AdviceOne Retirement Empowerment Workshop over 8 years ago. We are now happily retired with finances all in order and with an ongoing investment plan for our future. We were extremely hesitant about retiring early and AdviceOne helped us solidify our decision. We would highly recommend AdviceOne to anybody who does not have a retirement plan and needs expert guidance and support. We feel AdviceOne truly cares about our family, our finances, and our future. We have never regretted our decision." - Steve Jandreau, retired, Digital Technology, Pratt & Whitney |
“The entire team at AdviceOne is a group of dedicated professionals who are knowledgeable in helping with retirement planning. - John Teti, retired, Procurement, Pratt & Whitney |
"I have been a client of Tim Miller and AdviceOne for over 10 years. They have demonstrated exemplary client service, and provided me with sound professional financial advice. I was directed to their business by a respected friend and colleague with whom I shared an interest in securing a financial planner. I have gotten so much more. Tim and his team are focused on my individual plan for financial security and retirement and operating the ins and outs of the Executive stock options and compensation. - Dionne Henry, Executive, Engineering Quality, Pratt & Whitney |
“AdviceOne has provided expert retirement planning for us. They recommended a portfolio structure that provides lifetime income. The portfolio manages market and inflation risk with consideration to tax implications. The portfolio structure manages the income stream required to live comfortably. They always listen and tailor the plan to meet our individual needs and risk tolerance. They also made sound recommendations to take advantage of IRA, Roth IRA and other income managing options that are outside the 401(k).” - Bill Hastings, retired, Engine Design & Systems Integration, Pratt & Whitney |
"My experience with AdviceOne has been nothing short of exceptional. We started working with AdviceOne in our early 50s to create a plan with options to retire. This included a complete review of our existing assets, 401K plans, and goals for retirement. With their expertise and thoughtful consideration of our goals, they optimized our investment strategies. We’ve been so impressed with the expertise, attention to detail, and genuine interest in creating and handling our financial plan. Particularly reassuring is the integrity of our dealings with Carlos Henriques and the team. We’ve retired with confidence in large part because of the execution of the financial plan we created with AdviceOne." - John Parke, retired, Program Office, Pratt & Whitney |
"My wife and I have been clients of AdviceOne for over 8 years. They quickly became a trusted partner in our retirement and financial planning process. They do not tell you what to do; they teach you about their philosophy and make sure you understand what they are doing and why they are doing it. Numerous times over the years when a large financial decision is pending, we would reach out to our advisor, Tim Miller, to get his unbiased opinion of what we are trying to do, and he has provided the guidance needed to help us make decisions. You are told your entire life to save for retirement, but no one tells you how to start using what you saved to help fund your retirement. Knowing we have a financial partner to help with that guidance provides a great sense of relief." - Jeff Sabourin, Engineering, Pratt & Whitney |
"We began working with AdviceOne about two years before retirement. The workshops they provide are informative and engaging. The individual planning sessions helped us consolidate our assets and make wise decisions about our future. The AdviceOne team worked to understand our goals and level of risk tolerance developing an investment plan that meets our needs. Now that we are retired, we have been grateful for the proactive ways they have communicated with us as our needs, the economy, and tax laws change. If there is one thing I would change, it would be to have started working with AdviceOne about 10 years earlier." - Janet Wade-Utay, retired, Quality, Pratt & Whitney |
"My wife and I started working with Dani Wrubel at AdviceOne in 2020 and we are very happy with our decision. Dani has been amazing to work with and the entire staff at AdviceOne have been extremely cordial and helpful. - Tony Papale, Executive, Pratt & Whitney |
"It is really refreshing to work with a financial advisor who is truly interested in their client’s needs, circumstances and preferences. - Bill Nelson, F135 Technical Publications (MCS&S), Pratt & Whitney |

"Carlos Henriques has made our financial situation feel secure. Since 2014 he has provided us with advice on many issues concerning taxes, estate planning and navigating how to transition to retirement.

"My wife and I highly recommend AdviceOne for retirement planning. They were able to help connect the dots, make a holistic plan and enable us to reap benefits from financial tools. Their experience with large corporate benefits packages (RTX in particular) was especially helpful in setting the stage for and planning in a multi-year format, making it easier to manage prior to retirement." - Jeff Smith, Executive, Production for Military Engines, Pratt & Whtiney |
"My wife and I have known Carlos Henriques since I retired from Pratt & Whitney after 41 years as an engineer and international partnership manager in 2013. We regard him as our trusted fiduciary to manage our investment portfolio and as a financial coach. His most notable leadership skill is his organized approach of listening to my wife and me to gain an understanding of our financial needs. Carlos has always helped us to make balanced decisions for long-term planning and near-term requirements. His financial leadership has consistently provided us with financial results that complement our retirement lifestyle." - Ed Armstrong, retired, Engineering, Pratt & Whitney |
"What sold me on AdviceOne was the significant amount of time Tim Miller and Michael Grossman spent getting to know my wife and I, our family, financial situation and our retirement goals - without any "hard sell." As a result, we jointly developed and executed a plan over the past 6-plus years that has simplified our investments and focused on long-term security for our family. In addition, AdviceOne has intimate familiarity with both the RTX 401(K) and UBS Stock Option systems which has proven beneficial. Tim Miller has become a trusted family advisor and has provided financial guidance on every recent major financial decision and is always available for consultation." - Steve Rogers, retired Executive, Operations and Supply Chain, Pratt & Whitney |
"We signed up with AdviceOne to help us plan our retirement timing and to make sure we were making good decisions with wealth management through the transition. It turned out we got so much more from them. They provide frequent seminars for pre-and post-retirement planning, IRS and Roth strategies, as well as updates on market outlooks - very welcomed during the recent turbulence. - Jon Gould, retired Executive, Engineering, Pratt & Whitney |

We are very pleased to be in partnership with the AdviceOne team." - Jon Niemeyer, Executive, Engineering, Pratt & Whitney |
