First time the front desk at Marriott has given me a hard time for using my partner’s member number, anyway around this? Figured I’d just try again with a new person at the desk. We share a last name for what it’s worth. Thanks!

If you’re using their number via your work’s travel portal, they’ll know that and definitely will bug you. If this is personal travel, just make the reservation in your partner’s name, then have your partner call the hotel and have them add your name to the reservation saying that you’ll be arriving first. Do this with family all the time and have never had an issue

I mean, their terms say that whoever’s member number it is has to be staying in the room. They haven’t really enforced it in the past, but they’re fully allowed to start

The one or two times my wife was asked, she just told them I was arriving on a later flight.

Hello! Does bain provide initial accomodation, flight reimbursement and brokerage amount?

(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.

Does anyone know if this is normal? I joined a vault 100 firm in September last year. The firm put me on tier 7. In January I had the associate review and everything was normal. After a couple of weeks, I got the call from the hiring partner telling my bonus and new salary (because of the firm-wide salary increase). I realized I still get paid as a 7 year associate. The partner said because I joined the firm later in the year, it’s normal not to advance in the next year. Is it? Thanks!
