If you have status on Hyatt (explorist or globalist), is it worth booking Las Vegas hotel via Hyatt? Ike Aria (or any MGM ones). Do you get points and any room upgrades or better treatment? I just feel like Las Vegas is it’s own thing. Your experiences will would be helpful. Thanks.

Explorist here. It’s always worth it for points and status. They give you decent perks and welcome gifts based on my experience. Also late checkout. Just don’t expect a room upgrade bc it’s one of the most popular hotels in Vegas history

Sign up for M life too! Otherwise they can sign you up there. But I believe you will need it

Free parking too I believe.

Hi everyone, I’m an architectural designer (from Europe) with 1.5 yrs experience. I’m working for a practice in San Francisco, full-time from the office, getting 25 an hour.

I don’t want to be greedy but it’s so expensive out here… Thank you 🌈

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time
