Tier 2 to MBB at Manager level? I have a "round 0" discussion with a senior MBB partner this week and am not feeling excited by it. I'm currently at a strong practice at a T2, and am considering whether the upside of moving outweighs the risk.

I'm in the UK, where there is a meaningful pay delta at the same level, and expect TC would be 20-25% more. I do feel like I'm paid pretty well as it is. My typical hours are 55-60, with occasional peaks at 70. (Continued below)

Thinking of re-vamping my cc strategy. Currently have the Amex Plat and the Delta Amex Plat (mainly just for the companion pass each year which cancels out the AF) but because of the increase in Amex Plat’s AF I’m thinking of downgrading to Amex Gold, then getting Delta Reserve card for Skyclub access to replace my Delta Plat card. Thoughts on this or is there something I’m not thinking of? Lounge access and Amex’s transfer partners are the two main priorities to me

I moved into my apt during the pandemic last summer and got COVID price of $2800 for 2 bedroom that I share with my partner in a prime area of LES. The other bedroom we use for his office. It’s a newly renovated building too. Got an email asking if I’d like to renew the lease with the same rate for another year. Is this rare? Have other people been offered the same to keep the same lease price? I wonder if it has to do with the delta scare and people possibly wanting to leave NYC.
