I have been Hyatt globalist for last 3 years. I won’t make it next year - will only get to 42 nights and 83K qualifying points (100K needed). What is the best way to still get globalist? Is there a challenge type thing with Hyatt?

Pretty rare for them to do challenges. Unless you're willing to do 18 nights of mattress runs, which seems crazy, your best bet is via card spend.

The personal card would give you 5 nights + another 2 nights per $5k spent. So you'd need to spend $35k.

Biz card gives no nights initially but 5 nights per $10k spent. So $40k spend.

At that point, even if you truly have $35-$40k of organic spend left this year (or the ability to either front load or MS the spend), the opportunity cost seems way too high compared to just putting that spend towards other SUBs. I would not value globalist enough to do this but YMMV.

Thanks for the detailed reply! Yeah that’s a lot and not worth it!

There are corporate challenges, but they depend on your company. I value globalist extremely highly (it’s the only real hotel loyalty program) but you seem pretty far from it.

I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:

Happy to provide my story on the other side. Spent two years at Accenture under Technology mostly working on business analysis for implementations and PMO.

Left for Facebook for a role in strategic analytics in BizOps with 180k TC.

Few tips for looking at exits:

1) Referrals are a huge tool for getting your foot in the door. At Facebook it guarantees that atleast your resume is given more than a glance.

2) A well constructed story/resume can offset any weak points in your experience

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)

Hi Fishes,

What percentage hike can I negotiate in the HR round of Accenture if I have a second offer of 17 lacs (CTC) in hand and a relevant experience of 2 years?

Inputs from people who are working or have worked in Accenture would be really appreciated. 🙂

Hi Fishes, I grabbed an offer at Accenture with 12 LPA fixed for Level 9. I'm not getting a retention offer from my current company at 13.5 lpa. How do I go about a counter offer with Accenture HR? Also tell me how to approach this situation smoothly.

If HR doesn't fulfill the counter offer, is it ok to accept 12 lpa fixed for Level 9 and when will I get a hike here and how much would it be approximately?
