Has anyone used the Marriott friends & family code successfully if uhm... you weren’t exactly family? Do they ask for ID or an Employee number?

Oh no doubt - I just had a standard room. This looks awesome

I once talked to a corporate Marriott employee about this. It’s not that simple as typing in the code and there’s more paperwork behind it. He told me that there’s a form that someone (I think HR of Marriott?) has to sign and they have to present the form either ahead of time or at check in

What if they’re a client?

Wait elaborate. You’re able to use it without any ID? Cuz some of these rates are like 1/3 normal price...

PwC is different than friends and family lol. It’s way less of a discount.

I’ve used Goldman and EY a few times too but the Marriott employee discount is way more clutch. I thought you managed that instead of just corporate codes

Wait what. How you do this? Tell me more.

I have used their code to search the Bonvoy app (the code is MMF) but wasn’t sure if they would require me to prove I am a Marriott employee?

It does say valid proof required. Never tried to use it before

I use Deloitte or Accenture code. They have not checked so far.

Pwc usually has better rated FWIW

Can confirm there’s a form the Marriott employee must fill out for all friends and family (and the form has the friend and family members name, as well as the employees boss’s name and phone number in the event of poor behavior by the guest at the property) and they say the form needs to be presented at check in...but not all places have asked

MOSS ADAMS SoCal (Irvine, San Diego, LA) BRS people can you please provide some insight? I spoke to an experienced hire recruiter today and he said the company is moving to a hybrid model to include more in-person time between clients and staff. How often are you traveling to client sites and the office? is it as much as audit 2-3 weeks living in a hotel or sitting in the client's office? or maybe once a month? or are you working mostly remote? Thank you.

I got to know someone thru work, and flirted a bit over 1 week. Then we never spoke again because of work geography. He reached out this week after 9 months+ asking for a visa sponsor to take a vacay in my country (given mobility restriction these days), and asked me to hook him up with a business visa referral letter thru my connections. He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?
