How often did people do alt-travel back in the day? I’d imagine there’s no cost savings as you’re having to pay for your lodging somewhere instead of going back home.

Airfare is on the client. I would use points for lodging.

I have an offer to join a startup as an APM. The only downside is that the engineering team is located offshore in India. I’m concerned about the resulting impact because of 1) the potential late night calls 2) the learning opportunities missed by not working with a US engineering team (communication tactics, translatable skills) 3) potential exit opps into FAANG pm roles due to not having experience with an onshore eng team.
