Anyone have any luck getting American Airlines to Status March? No chance I’m paying them money to enter a challenge (without getting the status until after the challenge is over).

Couple years ago, I paid $180 or something for Platinum or whatever their equivalent is, for the challenge. Well worth it to fly that shitty airline.

I also opted for the challenge. I'd guess your firm has already negotiated pretty aggressive fare prices. I have known other airlines, like United, to offer corporate status match for a period of time. But not AA.

Ha yeah already platinum with UA and Delta. Going to call them and see what the deal isZ

If you’re Deloitte I thought they had the instant platinum pro challenge where you just needed to fly 24 segments within 3 months to keep it until Jan 2019.

Haven’t checked in a bit. Last time I looked (May timeframe) the deal was w/ delta. Thanks for the intel!

So AA is matching but only up to Platinum. What a joke!

AA does corporate status challenges that are free to join and instant status at the target level (either gold or plat) for the 3 months of the challenge, continuing through Jan 2019 if you are successful. There's a stretch goal to get to PP too. For us it's offered once a year during the summer.

Hi community, humbly seeking professional HR advice. I recently joined my company’s HR team. In an informal conversation, a senior HRBP, considered a peer, called 2 of our fellow HR colleagues “worthless.” I should have rebuked her then & there but was so caught off guard. This person is 20 years my senior. In the same conversation this person advocated for me on a separate matter & complimented my performance. I am not sure what course of action to take at this time. Distraught & unsure.
