Has anyone negotiated point bonuses before for Starwood? Is 15,000 point bonus/stay totally out of the question? Have to negotiate next week for a 12-person team for a mid-demand Cat 5 hotel

For a 12 person team your most likely going to get max 1k / stay.

Like D1 said, no hotel will give a 300$ bonus.

Well so do other people. See what you can get but I haven’t seen anything like that for a small group and short timeframe. They often offer a monthly bonus if you hit a number of nights but your 15k/stay won’t fly. That’s something you can ask for when you bring 20+ folks to a $600/night place on a regular basis

That’s totally crazy my friend. What’s SPG’s incentive to give you that? You probably pay 100-150/night and you’re asking for bonus that is worth up to $300. I assume you’re thinking 15k per person and stay or I’m missing something.

I’ve gotten a quote of triple base points (3k instead of 1k) for a $165 property with minimum 10 people for 3 nights a week for at least 3 months.

Per person? Fat chance they’ll give you that.

How long are you staying?

14 person team for 2 months (we've already stayed 2 months there). We spend on average $300/night now after room service and other incidentals.

If you’re already there, you have very little leverage. Do you have another hotel in the area? Go there for a week and then come back with an offer

Work with the hotel manager - I managed bonus points outside of a promo for an extended stay. Our firm also has a team that negotiates better rates and bonus points for groups that are traveling to the same city for a while; maybe ATK has a similar service?

Hi Everyone!

A company has made an offer and I wanted to understand if i'm being made a fool.

The monthly compensation is 1,37,500 (16,50,000 yearly) and Variable component (Bonus) is 1,50,000.

However in the offer it says "You shall be paid an annual compensation of Rs. 16,50,000/- per annum Cost to Company."

Which to me sounds like it doesn't consider 1,50,000 to be a part of CTC which is suspicious to me.

How should I deal with this?

Thank you!

I asked for a raise at work and they told me I would have to wait until the new fiscal year (5 months from now) before they could make any adjustments. I provided many reasons to my management as to why I deserve the raise and all the successes I’ve had over the years with this company and management agreed that they were all valid reasons that warrant a raise. Does it make sense to stay and wait it out or should I be looking for a new job because I am being under valued?
