I’d ask your manager, but would assume no since you didn’t need to be there.

I’ve done it for my client when we are somewhere it doesn’t make sense to fly back/forth (eg Japan) over the weekend. But highly project specific, and I feel like it’s only allowed when it’s necessary to stay, not if you just want to

I don't want to invest in these funds that hold such companies, but I want to retire. What do I do? Also my company doesn't allow adding our own stocks or linking to a broker because I'm in consulting.

Did I just mark myself as a flight risk by telling my managers that I was going to take another internal opportunity? If the new manager changes her mind in the process (and of course she still can since the written offer is not out yet - the org likes to have everything buttoned up before handing out the writing offer so it's accepted immediately), am I screwed? Oh I also said, to my current managers, that the workload was wearing on me... this idiot here
