Is it this hard to put their benefits side by side and come up with an answer? No one here will know your spending habits better than you. Not to mention there are dozens of articles a simple google search away that break down the differences between there two cards in the simplest terms.

I have the reserve and with the recent price hike I probably should have gone with the preferred. I spend a lot but the door dash thing does nothing to actually offset the cost increase for me.

Also the Lyft pink hasnt been helpful. Even with the 15% off Uber is still cheaper

They mean the 10x points redeemed through the portal for 1.5cpp

Largely depends on how much you will spend on the 3x categories (dining and travel). The priority pass lounge access is nice too, and are all the other benefits. (Trip cancellation insurance, extended warranty protection). Basically you have to decide if it’s worth the extra $150 (99 AF vs 550 AF-300 travel credit =250)

i live and nyc and used doordash instead of seamless until i hit the credit limit. Pretty good options may as well use what’s given to you. Lyft pink is nice too. Also have to think about redeeming points. 1.5x travel for reserve vs 1.25 for preferred.

So say you have 100k points. That’s 1500 with reserve and 1250 with preferred. That +300 travel credit already makes card free essentially if you use it correctly

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
