First class, 1A. I tried to hide my briefcase under my legs bc of no bin space or seat in front. FA caught it twice and to "punish" me stored it in a bin in the back of the plane. WTF Delta?!

Hello all,
Looking for a consultant position in healthcare consulting. I have an MBA with 5 years in the healthcare industry, 7+ years of strategic program/project management and I’m am lean six sigma green belt certified. Know of any companies currently hiring? (I am willing to travel. )

Feel free to PM me to further discuss.

Have opportunity to work in my firm’s London satellite office for about a year and a half, and then come back to NY headquarters. In good standing with firm and have M&A and capital markets experience. Did not start traveling abroad until my bar trip (did not grow up with the money for trips like that) and think it would be a good personal and professional experience. Any thoughts / advice?

AA delayed a flight 7 hours on Saturday before cancelling it and giving us no help, monetary or otherwise, in finding lodging. Rebooked Sunday for a very early flight, got home 24 hours late.

A Delta flight I took from the US to the EU a few months ago was delayed 24 hours (of which I spent at the airport) and when I asked for a refund for the $1300 ticket they declined and offered a $150 gift card 😂🥴🙃

For my fellow PC gamers out there - Anyone use their work laptop for gaming while on the road or do you travel with your personal as well???

I need 20k miles to get AA plat pro status. Planning to go to southeast asia in the fall. $600 for non AA round trip flight or $1100 for AA flight. Is the extra $500 worth it?

What are some of your must pack travel items? I'm traveling out of the country in October.

26th Sept - Advisory Odyssey
Question to Leadership of PwC India - Do you think people would visit a hotel(4-6 PM) just for high tea?
No Lunch, No Gifts?
Why have you even wasted money in booking the hotel, just for high tea? Do you think, people would care about the townhall & go?, if you just give high tea?
Seriously man! I don't even know, why PwC is even coming under Big4! Shame!!

Chase Sapphire Reserve is not able to book a ticket for me on Air India because the flight is not showing up on their system. The flights shows up everywhere else including on Expedia, which powers Chase’s portal. Anyone had similar experience?

Really regret not selling United Wholesale Mortgages. Very confused on what to do with this one. Unless it gets PT it’s gonna be stuck around the 10 range. Think I may be eat the loss on first say a dividend is available

Anyone know of any hotel chains that have properties on either Nantucket or Martha’s Vineyard?

FYI - Just went on the Marriott website and selected the option to combine both spg and Marriott accounts. All stays and details updated. Past history to be updated in 48 hours. Get it done folks!!

Will hotels and airlines extend their status requirements? (I really only care about Marriott)

Where are you traveling to when it’s finally safe to do so?

Flying Southwest. An add at the entrance of the plane says: "anybody can fly you, but we do it with a smile". Scaryyyy. Are they letting any smily person fly us? Hahah

A coworker of my cousin in Florida just checked JetBlue's price to fly to Boston ahead of the hurricane: $3800.

Dear TCSers,
How many of you are still Working from Home? Is WFO is not mandatory for everyone?

Anyone in GT Accounting Advisory? What's the day to day like and how is the WLB?

(1/2) I started a new job less than a month ago at a large firm with a significant pay increase. I work remotely- which is a special arrangement. They paid for my travel to their headquarters for in-person training. After interacting with my manager and some of the attorneys, I feel like I made a mistake. Manager is demeaning and rude. A bunch of the attorneys dropped not so subtle hints that people who work from home are causing all kinds of problems. I don’t know what to do.

Redeemed my recognition points for a portable air conditioner. Hope it's effective!

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

When they say utilization doesn't count for the month of May/June what exactly does that entail? I'm assuming being on the bench for those months will still show on personal utilization reports...
