Ask for the location and check in myTE if you don't wanna ask directly

Sure but if that's what makes your decision then you might want to reconsider your career

No. You should avoid this project so you can get a $42 per diem instead.

BCG what? lol I just got staffed on the project, I just wanna see how much the per diem. Don't make stupid assumptions

Just enter your per diem expenses on myte. It will tell u the the amount for any location

$45 is not the highest. Both NYC and SF are $52. D2, we get to keep what we don't spend. I regularly pocket $120/week post-tax.

This makes me laugh only because I lose about $50 a week on per diem. Mmmmm wine.

like

1) go to myte 2) go to expenses tab 3) add expense - per diem 4) enter location and click claim meals to see amounts

Your per diem is low... Is it not based on the govt rate?

Lol we get to keep our per diems unlike you guys. It's not "use it or lose it" situation. I grocery shop most of the time and can easily pocket an extra $100 a week.

I don't see the issue with spending $50 of your own money on meals a week if you're boozing too.

@OP ummm you can just check the per diem on myTE.

$41 is relatively good, highest is $45 in NYC and similar COL

Every other company I've worked for reimbursed by receipts with a general guidance of around $80/day. $43 a day is super cheap.

Already heard WLB is better and the culture, but I feel like I’ve gotta find that out first hand. Protiviti
