Anyone booked award flights on Iberia avios and then added an infant to the tickets later on? We want to secure the business class seats for our trip next year before our baby is born.

Throwing this out there. My company was recently acquired and I was laid off yesterday. I’m currently 6m pregnant so looking for a company that isn’t going to have a problem with my giving birth in 3m (looking for a miracle). 13 YOE in Marketing (Brand, Digital, Product, Ops). You name it, I’ve probably done it. Team management exp but not required in next role. Just looking for 100% remote, flexibility, and company that puts families first and won’t give me a hard time about doctor appts 🙏🏻

Do my wife and I still qualify for the $500/child for 2 kids if we earn more than $200k in combined joint income? If I didn’t file for 2019 taxes yet, and one kid was born 2019, do we get 500 or 1000?

I lived in tampa in my early 20s and am now in my late 30s and looking to move back. One of the reason I left is because I felt I had too much energy for the city for a single young professional, but now husband is from there and we have a kid but we are both social people. Do you guys find it easy to meet interesting people and has the city gotten any more fun?

Hi All,

I want to go to India, to be with her during this time. My question here is if I go for visa stamping will I get stamping till Aug 2022 or aug 2025?
If I get stamping till Aug 2025, Can I come back before aug 2022 without any issue?
If I get stamping till Aug 2022, will there be any issues at port of entry

Im a RN and took on a new role working in Home Health. I chose this position because My husband & I recently moved to PA with our 2 kids (1&3), with no family available for his residency program with a hospital. If you know that life, I’m pretty much the main parent for our kids. I don’t want to work in the hospital/floor work anymore; nor do I believe the hrs are flexible enough. I need a job that’s flexible for the kids but pays >$44/hr. Maybe remote or hybrid? Please help w/ suggestions.

Anyone here in EY USA and can point me to the maternity policy? I can only find Canadian or UK versions ok the policy site!

Opening an IRA for a client, wants their primary beneficiary to be a parent. The parent is a Cuban citizen living in the U.S. with a U.S. green card / legal residency. Custodian bank says client needs to choose someone else due to their Cuban citizenship. Has anyone here run into a similar situation?

@Cloudflare - What is the maternity + parental/bonding leave like? How long, fully paid, max time one can take, etc. TIA!

Things I've learned from the global D reply all email thread:
-Diana(RU) wants a secondment. Anywhere.
-Kevin(UK) is looking for the remote
-Bob(CA) is throwing a party
-David(CZ) is pregnant

Did any associates take paternity leave last year? How did it effect your bonus if you beat your "reduced" goal but didn't meet the original goal?

From a financial standpoint in this market, which would be a better approach in Austin -

1. Buy a ~8-850k house that meets most of our ideal criteria (size, schools, interiors etc) to stay long term

2. Buy a ~5-550k house that’s not ideal with the plan of moving into an ideal home in 4-5 years when kid is ready for school.

How easy is it to get a mortgage for the second home?

Household income - 300k

Happy to add more details as needed

Thanks

Thoughts on the following neighborhoods: 1) area south of Chatfield Lake; 2) Roxborough Park. We are a family with a middle school aged child (and late 30s). Thanks!

What big 4 have the best maturity and paternity leave policies?

Anyone tried biossance skin care line? I’m Pregnant and wanted something safe and clean during my pregnancy.

Hi, does anyone know when an employee becomes eligible for maternity/paternity leave at either Gilead, BMS, or Merck? For NVS, it’s day 1 of employment but not sure if that’s common within the industry.

Tomorrow they are requiring masks again and I was almost in tears when I found out. We have been mask free (recommended) since June and I feel like we are being muzzled again. I am vaccinated, frustrated, and have been off of antidepressants since March. I don’t even want to go into work tomorrow. Anything is better than being virtual and I am trying to look at the bright side, but moving backward still burns. We have parent-teacher conferences coming up and I am hoping that it’s temporary.

What is a good website to use to create a whole custom baby site?

Aside from the normal baby registry stuff, what are the best financial gifts people can give? For example: savings bond. Can you open a brokerage account to add to? What are some cool smart things you’ve seen or done?

One of my senior managers is a boomerang and told me she was laid off when she was 7 months pregnant about 10 years ago. I think she was a senior or manager. She was in a specific group and everybody was laid off. It wasn’t performance based.

Would you work at your company again if you were laid off?

Renegotiating my contract and curious about maternity leave policies at other practices/hospitals. Do you get paid leave? If so how much time off & are you getting full pay? We are a group of about 75 employees, 6 docs with 5 PA’s and only unpaid 12 weeks off.

What is the agency UX scene like in denver? Are most UXers working in product/at tech companies? I’m thinking of making a move from NYC.

I understand A&M comp is primarily derived from the annual bonus based on collections/performance. However, given the significant increase in Big 4 FDD comp this year, are there any plans to raise the base salary for A&M? I have to pay rent every month not just annually 🤣

What's the best firm to work for in Dallas? Genuinely curious.

I am thrilled to announce we just passed the 1,000 member mark, and on a Friday to boot.

I am beyond thrilled to see there so many professionals who enjoy the brown water! Granted it’s still the middle of the day, but let’s see those TGIF/celebratory drinks! 🥳🥃

How have you combated your fear of rejection? I fixate on such small things as when my friends, for example, reject plans I have made. This definitely makes me more averse to putting myself out there and makes me ruminate on past perceived failures, which are clearly not good for personal growth

One thing that COVID-19 has taught you?

I applied for a position in KpMg uk and got call from KpMg Bangalore. Has someone routed my profile to India?

Anyone have any good realtors in the Greenville SC area who know the VA loan?

I take immense comfort in knowing that chances are, I cross paths with some of you daily. Does anyone else notice this? It’s fascinating.

Two weeks ago I attended an interview in person and they promised to let me know whether or not I’d be hired for the position. Later, I learned through LinkedIn that a friend of mine got the job. The agency never contacted me to let me know anything. Should I be mad?

Anyone who can share their experience flying Air China?

Would you rather have 5x amex MR points or 3x chase UR points for each dollar spent on flights? Why? Company let's me book flights on personal cards and trying to decide which to choose.

Just got an offer to upgrade my Amex Gold to Platinum with a 100k point bonus (spend $6k in 6 months). Is this worth it to upgrade to platinum? Would you do it

SPG/Marriott recommendations in Mexico City? (Good value for point redemption and location)?

Best airline for in/out of MCO?

Unethical to pocket citi prestige 4th night reimbursement?

Amex platinum vs CSR??

Fly to Columbus on connecting flight or to Atlanta and drive?

Are Delta international award tickets fully refundable the same way domestic ones are?

Is CSR still worth it? I already used the complimentary Lyft membership? It just expired. and I already used the DoorDash benefit. Their fees are going up to $550

I have a boneheaded question I’m pretty sure I know the answer to. My partner can’t use my Hilton Honors account for an upcoming stay he is going to book, right? He doesn’t need my discount or anything - was just hoping that he could get my diamond benefits.

Without thinking it through I signed up for two cards at the same time I need to spend 8k in three months which is fine but any way to track my second against promotion vs actually loooimg st my state

American airlines is so dumb. Was trying to purchase MCE seats for a long-haul. You can’t
purchase it online after check-in. And they can’t uncheck you over the phone. Good thing I fly Delta!

It says on Bonvoy breakfast voucher that gratitude is included. Somehow they always expect additional cash tips?

Anyone have the SPG/Marriott corporate code for Comcast?

Currently Platinum on Delta flying 3,000 miles a week but headed to b-school in the fall with an American hub. Worth switching to AA for the next few months or should I keep racking up Delta skymiles?
