It’s not a lack of a verbal “offer” but the availability of a breakfast in the restaurant offering. If the property had breakfast in the restaurant and gave you $200, they did so in error and I wouldn’t expect this to happen again. #bonvoynoob

Has anyone been jipped points? On my last stay I should have had like 12k+ points and only somehow have 600 points from that stay. How is it even possible to get so few?

Had that happen once. Was given points for a bottle of Gatorade but not the actual hotel night.

I’ve collectes this many times. I would say the majority of the time I ended up escalating to Corporate as the Manager on Duty would not budge.

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

I am expecting an offer from Master Card for Senior Software Engineer position in O Fallon MO. Please let me know what kind of base salary I can expect with 11 yrs experience . I don’t wanna undersell but also trying to avoid being aggressive but quote a decent number which will be achievable. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Is 125k $ base a fair value for or I can pitch higher? They have a 15 to 20 % bonus on top of base pay and a 10% match on 401k which the recruiter keep highlighting.

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.

I am not originally from US but I have been living and working here since 2018. Unfortunately I do not have any knowledge in IRA, Roth IRA, Backdoor, etc…so for for now what I do is to max out my 401K just to match what my employer pay and I invest all my money using an investment account with Merry Linch (guided investment).
Is there an easy way to learn more about this topics? (Something very simple like “for dummies”) everything that I found so far is confusing to me…

Do you all feel that the Health Insurance choice is actually all the same? The coverage is absolutely copy and paste for Bronze to Platinum and the deductible/copay is very similar.
I just don’t understand why we have the illusion of “choice” if the offer is the same and it is really bad (in our case).
Going from $61 per paycheck for 2.5k deductible 75% copay to $500+ per paycheck with 500 deductible 85% copay.
Other firms have better health insurance?
