You can do 40k in ANA off peak RT or 50k on Alaskan of peak RT.

The ANA flights are non-stop, or you can book with a stop on AA or Alaskan.

(But these require MR or SPG or actual ANA/AA/AS miles).

You could do 60k miles with JAL which is a delta partner, or 65k via BA.

Yes it is. Also try to look at your outbound and inbound legs separately. You may be able to find a cheap Delta One flight on one of those and still spend the same amount since Delta prices RT

Great for Delta

Wow

I have offers from both United Health Group and Atlassian for a Senior Financial Analyst position. Similar Comp (Atlassian slightly higher due to stock options).

In the long term, does Atlassian look better on a resume/work experience due to the Tech/Software space? Seems like their culture is great, but a much higher work load due to the nature of the company. Thanks! Happy to answer DM's too
