Houston is huge, so really depends on places u want to visit. But generally Westin next to galleria is a hot spot.

St Regis - great property and pretty close to happening neighborhoods in the loop

OP Houston resident here - what are you looking to do while in Houston?

+1 for St Regis. Fairly central (but not immediately close to anything)

Westin at the galleria is terribad.

St Regis without a doubt

I know that's depends on the amount I have to travel (and potentially stay) but at the moment this is unknown. Past 8 months was just twice a month + 2 nights stay.

The only thing I know is it won't be every week, the return trian ticket is about £80-100, depends I could plan ahead.

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.

Hi fishes, thinking for switching to other consulting firms. Current job at EY requires too much travel. So, I wanted to know travel policies of other firms before making the switch.

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits. The parental leave is pretty bad, just FMLA and STD/LTD so the most I’d get is 60% of my salary for 12 weeks. I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?

My agency wants creatives to use canva from now on. These are some slides from a presentation we received justifying why (made in canva, of course). I wish this was a joke...
