Any Hyatt or Marriott recs in LA? Nothing expensive though pls

If I’m fully vaccinated, where would be a good place to travel and work from right now? I was looking into Hawaii but you still have to pay for a $90 test apparently.

I am about 100 nights away from reaching the lifetime grandfathered premier access, not sure if I can make it by year end. No longer on travel projects. Any tips? Any new updates from Marriott?

Hotel or corporate housing? Benefits and drawbacks of each. This is for a long term engagement in Denver. I really like getting my Marriott points, but wouldn’t mind staying some weekends in Denver.

First travel project. What are the most valuable airline points to accumulate? How can I maximize my travel points (hertz, Marriott, air, csr) to be redeemed for free flights?

In the UK what rewards credit card is best for relatively frequent travelers? Amex platinum / BA premium / something else?

What is the tipping etiquette on the free platinum breakfast in a JW Marriott? The server just gets coffee / orange juice and you serve yourself. It is an overpriced buffet that I would never dine in.

My company is paying for one credit card. I'm leaning towards Amex Platinum given the large 100k sign up bonus at the moment (which I'll be able to hit). People lean towards CSR because of the 3x on dining but I don't eat out that much (and additional perks, but I prefer the Amex for that).

Should I grab the Amex Plat and not think twice?? Thanks!!

Should I stay at a company I know I like culture-wise when my manager said they will try to promote me, but with no guarantee. Or should I take a job offer I was given with a nice raise, but is in consulting at Slalom. I have not worked in consulting before. There is no travel with Slalom, but the idea of being the new person all the time isn’t too appealing. Less pay and known culture, or more pay unknown job satisfaction?

Does vois provide transportation to eon, Pune?
What is the radius? Will help in choosing relocation locality.
Thanks in advance.

Which advisory group has the least travel out of AAS, FDD/TAS, and risk advisory? Or is it all dependent on the client and team nowadays? And is the travel schedule comparable to consulting? (ex. M-Th on a plane)

So as we all look at next year's travel strategies, let's open the age-old debate:

Direct flights on the home city's dominant airline or layovers on a competitor that might give you more upgrades?

I recently joined FIL as Lead BA. Is there any chance of on-site travel? Is there any team where on-site movement is easy?

Is anyone from Nashville or know downtown Nashville well? If u had to stay at the sheraton grand or ac hotel which would u stay at and why? For location and for the property?

I am in a bit of a good/bad spot. I have worked at Salesforce for close to a year as a consultant. They want to bring back travel to 50%+ post Covid and I am not feeling that motivated to be away from my family that often. I have an opportunity to join a startup as a Sr. PM likely making the same or a tiny bit less. But no travel and not consulting. All internal project. I don’t know what else I should be looking at. I am asking here cause you guys are all smarter than my childhood friends…

I'm thinking of moving to Denver soon. Can you fine folks tell me what pros and cons the city has to offer? I like hiking as much as I like dancing and bar hopping. Seeking a balance of nature + city

My dilemma… I am an injury adjuster at a carrier experiencing high inventory that’s barely manageable. A competitor offered a higher salary and manageable workload. BUT, I would like to get into underwriting. I applied for UW position w/ a different carrier and they’ve made an offer. It’s lower than my current salary and significantly lower than what I’d make by taking the first offer. Do I take the high salary and stay in claims or go for UW in hopes it will be best in long run?

Looking to do a career pivot into VC. Have 12+ years of B2B tech marketing experience with IBM, Google, Deloitte and a number of startups. Have skills in messaging, product launches, and sales and enjoy diving deep on my personal investments (all public companies beyond a few RSUs). Have an MBA in the back pocket too. Thoughts are to join as a marketing expert and learn unique VC investment philosophy. Any advice on how to break into the VC world? Just started networking/planning.

Hi marketing people. So my wife graduated in 2017 with a marketing degree, but we got married and had kids straight away and she never worked in the field other than an internship during college.

Types of roles and companies she should look for/at?

Welcome and thank you for joining this bowl. I'm hoping that this will be a place where fishbow-lers can respectfully share their experiences of toxicity at companies that continue to harbor these little "corporate terrorist". But most importantly, I want people to be heard without being censored, which is what Glassdoor, Indeed and LinkedIn seem to be doing on behalf of some companies.

Spent a weekend at a JW and I had no hot water the entire time. Complained 3x and no fix, how many points? They gave me a packet of tea at checkout but this wasn’t what I was thinking.

My director tried to tell me "a hack" to maintain airline status and said I just had to get the airline credit card and spend $30,000 and I could keep status without ever stepping on a plane...

I’m getting a crazy good deal on the Ritz (~250 per night) in Miami - but it uses a Corp code for a company I don’t work for. Worth the risk?
