I’m an avid southwest flyer and have been for a while. The flexibility and point redemption is insane. I may need to switch for a project — any fish think I should stick with this switch? (United/AA)?

I think it's matter of whether you like to travel internationally tho. I think that's the key weakness of Southwest and why I usually avoid them

United's better than American tho...

United sucks if that's what you're asking

Basically, I’m in Chicago and don’t know if it’s worth staying with AA / United after a forced switch (hate united but flew them internationally several times last year, so have some points), or if it’s worth taking the 3 month hit and going right back to SWA

I do like to travel internationally but it’s far and few between for personal travel (last year was project reasons).

Where are you traveling to that SWA doesn’t go to out of MDW?

Accenture India Employees - (1) How much does job location matter in getting good projects for a fresher(ASE- Lvl 12) ?

I am currently in Entry Level Pool-Bangalore and will be 'Soft Locked' to Bench in a month's time. I wish to change my job location to either Indore in MP(top priority) or to Pune(MH).

(2) Should I wait till I get a project in Bangalore and then change location only if WFH gets over (if that is possible) or change it right now ?
(3) Any idea till when WFH will last? Thanks 🙏
