Happy New Year 🎆

United Platinum here - got an offer to pay ~$6k for upgrade to 1K. Thoughts on if it’s worth it?

Already belong to Club (United Infinite) and have CLEAR credit through Amex Platinum. Still have 40 plus points from hitting Platinum last year.

Unlikely to travel for business until late 2Q at earliest but have 2-3 transcontinental flights planned for summer and 1 transatlantic for fall. Maybe another 1-2 shorter trips this year as well. I imagine I’d use my extra plus points on all these.

When you are in the US and your spouse is abroad, how do you file I-145 together? (AOS vs. Consular processing) Spouse is not able to get dependent visa due to consulate closures but PD might come before that could happen. Will be reaching out to lawyers too, but wanted to check if anyone had done this before, thanks!

Are other companies' big data systems as bad as Amex's?


Amex is the only company I've been with so I want to know from others how it's like in other companies. Hive is so slow. Yellowbrick is fast but not all cornerstone data is there and is practically useless for my team's use case. MLS crashes so often. Ask Aida support is so sloppy and they just regurgitate the same information over and over again. Is this an Amex thing or is this just how big data works everywhere?

Is there some sort of chart or indicator that shows the housing market is at its peak. How can one track that?

I have 5+ yrs experience as a BA/PO. I applied to a job for a Sr. BA with a start-up, that really interested me. The JD requirements said the candidate should have 5+ yrs BA experience. Well, I interviewed (Wed 4/13) with the recruiter and they said wow I think you have what the hiring manager is looking for. Fast forward to this morning, I reach out for updates and they tell me that the hiring manager was looking for someone with more BA and startup experience. What gives??
