Crap when does it expire again?

Looked around a bit. Nothing great in the Northeast unfortunately. It’s good for Orlando if you wanna do a Disney or universal trip. I’m using mine for a weekend in Dallas

Is it possible to book cat7 then pay the difference with our own points?

@C1 scroll up man...you can upgrade it with monies by calling Marriott

You can’t i tried. You will find no category 5 in any major city. I just used mine at an airport for a night when i was flying into another city for the weekend

Used it at JW Marriott in Hanoi and was upgraded to some ridiculous suite. Moral of the story: leave the US.

If anyone wants to donate, i’ll post a picture of my kid enjoying the free night 😬

For data science roles, senior (L6) at AWS or post MBA level (specialist track, so same pay as generalists) at MBB? Comp is 20% higher at AWS just to start.

But maybe looks like MBB has better upside - solid path to promotion to manager level with solid comp increase. But worse WLB and it's unclear to me whether MBB data scientist on the resume is up to par with big tech data scientist on the resume.

Coming from big 4 so I am considering brand so I can do better with future resume screens.

Practice has been growing rapidly but I’ve been in a rut as a few projects went on ice due to COVID, and have been swinging and missing on BD. In parallel, my Practice Leader has been crazy busy because of said growth and has missed last few check-ins with me. He’s also my main PPMD sponsor. So am feeling demotivated and a little unloved. Trying not to take it personally, but any tips on how I can get out of this rut?
