Had a great time at the Hotel Punta Islita. It's SUPER remote and I'm sure there are prettier beaches elsewhere, but the jungle setting and included activities were a nice touch.

I've stayed at the guanacaste resort. It was nice. I'm not sure it was the best (haven't been to any other) but Costa Rica is awesome! Rent a car and go to the hot springs around mt. arenal

Same as EY1 - only been to 1, stayed at a Westin in Guanacaste. It was right on the beach, lunch options/food during the day left a lot to be desired, but I would stay there again

Hi All. I am currently working in TCS and pursuing my PGP in Data Science and Business Analytics from Great Learning. I don't know much about job opportunities. I love travelling and some of my friends travel to different countries for a short stint (1-2y) for work. Is there any job/company that would be allow me to travel often (to different countries) as a Data Scientist/Analyst? Sorry if the question sounds dumb. Thanks in advance!

How soon is too soon to quit a job? I took what seemed like a great offer, with competitive pay, a hybrid schedule, and 15% travel. However, I’m about 1.5 months in and the job is miserable. I’m working 50 hour weeks with no breaks to keep up with the demand, there is minimal training or support, I can’t work hybrid yet, I get 24/7 phone calls, and they’ve asked me to travel once a month for the remainder of the year. At this point, I’m only staying for fear of how it will look on my resume.

Idk who needs to hear this but don’t just accept feeling lucky to have a job during a pandemic as an excuse to not get your promotion AND raise. If they say they don’t have money, issa lie. They have it, just not for you.

It goes without saying but always keep that resume fresh and be on the lookout for yourself because they SHOL ain’t lookin out for us.

🗣Don’t let them assign your value, know it for yourself and leave if you have to!!
