I did the 15 on Orange. Was super nice and was upgraded to a suite with a great view of table mountain. Had to uber everywhere but you’ll probably have to do that anyway and Uber was super cheap. Other popular choice is the Westin but it was 10k points more a night and I like the boutique feel of autograph collections. For restaurants definitely check out the butcher shop and cod father!

Ok. Thanks

Make sure you check out Miller's Thumb restaurant!

Check Airbnb. They have the premium option for CPT and some of them are insanely nice and not expensive. You might be better off doing that and saving your points

I have offers from both United Health Group and Atlassian for a Senior Financial Analyst position. Similar Comp (Atlassian slightly higher due to stock options). Coming from another healthcare company as a SFA, does anyone have experience at either company? In the long term, does Atlassian look better on a resume/work experience due to the Tech/Software space? Seems like their culture is great, but a much higher work load due to the nature of the company. Thanks! Happy to answer DM's too

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines. She now requires that I go back to the office to “show face” that HR is right alongside the essential employees. I have been more productive from home vs the office. I get the perspective of team unity, but is it wrong to feel there is no reason to risk my health? The company justifies increasing my covid risk (high-risk already) to “show face”, when my job is being fulfilled while WFH. Am I crazy?
