Thanks!

For cash back, should be pretty straightforward based on your spending habits. For points, I love the Amex Gold but Chase also has the Sapphire line.

Cash back has the worse redemption value. Better to get points card. Sapphire Reserve / Venture X / Amex Gold. If you travel surge Amex platinum is one of the best , but not for all people. I have both Amex Plat and Reserve and wil prob get Venture X for sign up bonus temporarily. If you travel / spend enough, these all end up being net positive.

Venture card is great

Amex Blue

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments

Got a 30% salary bump, via an offer for Senior Consultant S&O from Deloitte. Currently underpaid at EY Advisory. I'm MBA and this year is my promotion year at EY for Manager. What to do? Get demoted and move to D? Or counter at EY? Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.
